Certificate, Hallmark of Brilliance for my poem, Woman in Red

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Woman in Red

She gazes through the window pane
Daydreaming of times jeweled, in her mind
She wonders how she’s changed to find
Someone she can’t recognize in a lane

Of others who’ve become plastic
Replicas of a trend that reveres
The artificial instead of the natural seers
Who stand alone, against the flow, barbaric

In being bullied, effective in their honor
To prevail against the adamant need
To be perceived for who they are, indeed
They triumph in the end, like you and me, never poor

As we stand for values and ethics,
Beliefs that teach discipline, empower
Your self-confidence to soar
Into success without despair rooted in heretics.

Double Gold Certificate for my poem,  She Climbs

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

She Climbs

Once upon a fairytale,  a young woman
Dressed in a grey flowy dress caresses
Her calf, flies with the winds of change, blesses
Each step on the decrepit stairs as she ran

Up to her waiting destiny, her knight.
Each step closer to her goal becomes
Brighter for hope shines like crimes
Hiding in darkness’ blight.

The baluster along the way
Changes from rotten to golden
As her aim comes closer, all of a sudden
She trips, falls as strong arms carry

The burdens she hauls a weight
Heavier than Atlas’ heavens up to a fine
Glittery tower where its bulk dissipates in line
With the rays that shine on meliorism’s height

That stomps out the blight of despair
That weighs her down, yet, she continues
To strive to achieve optimism’s news
That harken loudly into the pews of heavenly repair.

Certificate of Excellence for my Acrostic poem,  BLASPHEMY

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Acrostic
BLASPHEMY

Blast the reality into heavenly sky
Leaving values of religious nature
Amplify your discipline, values
Stand up for what’s right, never
Provide others a reason to blasphemy
Heating their anger as opposing views
Enter the fray, aggression rises,
Many loose tempers for they’re blinded
Yet, they still discuss, so change is possible.

Diploma for my poem,  Cellist’s Song

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

The Cellist’s Song

His mahogany cello is tightly embraced,
He cradles the bow as its wolf tones
Create an echo into the roiling waves, tones
That crest and dip into an abyss forced

To struggle with the undertow
To rise and be heard. Its metronomes
Have a tempo that moves feelings, homes
For emotions that crawl out of the flow

Of notes composed and diligently
Played to tell a story of heartache that’s
As old as time, yet, it’s everlasting plots,
Themes still apply today. So play, soar like a butterfly

From the cello’s strings, emote
The chaos within,  share its thrill
As you play the emotions of the audience that fill
Your mind’s eye even if they’re absent. So gloat

In your supremacy in affecting
People’s empathy, humanity
Through simple notes that fly
Into the breeze with ease and humility.

Certificate of Appreciation for my poem, Warriors in Sheep Skin

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Warriors in Sheep Skin

Warriors dressed in sheeps’ clothing
Fight, as warriors are wont to fight,
Let your voices rise, Soar like a kite,
Cross oceans of fright, conquering

Hearts with words of peace,
Empathy, compassion for humanity
That has fallen astray, accepting fraticide
As a way of life, unquestioningly

Some follow like the sheep they are,
While others use every medium,
From comedy, literature, criticism,
Painting, sculpting, all in their way fare

And pair their visions of peace
Fighting, unnoticed by many,
But those affected by their kindly
Actions have only gratitude that’ll fleece

Despair into an abyss where peace
Reigns in warrior stance in pride
That freedom fighters are framed in place
By the courts of the people who don’t hide.

Platinum Certificate for my poem, Rebellion Yell

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Rebel Yell

Freedom is not given but taken,
Taken through the drive,
Drive of the oppressed to stay,
Stay the course in their rebellion,
Rebellion that insights thoughts,
Thoughts that revel in rocking,
Rocking the boat of taught habits,
Habits that destroy creativity,
Creativity needs a voice, medium,
Medium to transform its message,
Message that change is coming,
Coming to overthrow the tyrant,
Tyrant who exploits, destroys,
Destroys hopes, imagination,  freedom,
Freedom that ‘comes with great,
Great responsibility’, for its value,
Value lies in one’s ability to soar,
Soar, without hindrance, to reach
Reach the pinnacle of wonder,
Wonder that wanders stealthily,
Stealthily seeping through cracks,
Cracks that mold into a unit,
Unit that’s unbreakable with the help,
Help of imagination’s power,
Power that strives for justice,
Justice that reigns over happiness,
Happiness that cleaves subjugation.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem,  Symphony of Fall

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Symphony of Fall

As the leaves fall singing a last
Hoora to sunny days, warm breezes,
Replaced with a plethora of colors that freezes
On the ground in an array of colors that blast

The verdant greens into yellowish
Greens, oranges,  and burnished reds
That crinkle, crackle beneath our feet as heads
Turn to watch the scene divided by roads of hardship

Where the greens have faded
While the other paints a palette of reds
That burn beauty Within as it delves and heads
Into the sunset with its divided colors shaded

By God’s paintbrush that never
Disappoints those who appreciate
The divinity in the balance, never late,
Always just as it equalizes reality of the creator.

Diploma for my poem,  Leave’s Lost Love

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Leaves’ Lost Love

We are at the cusp of diurnal times
When fall falls, leaves flee, and flown
Away into fleeting cooling breezes that crown
The tree tops in a bare coat of branches

And dying leaves whose love story
With the tree is as tragic as thee.
They try to stay connected with a fee
Of dried stems that can only cry

When the leaves finally fall
And their story ends in crackles,
Crunches of animals stepping on the backs
Of mummified soil with a tapestry full

Of golden, green, orange hues
Turning pallid the longer the stay
Before their love, weary of loss, play
The fools as they’re swept into pues

And cues to be taken and turned
Into paper for schools. The poor leave’s
Story of love is rejuvenated with heaves
A sigh of true connection with child

Whose doodles, words sweep
The pain of loss into sweeter
Reverence to new connections, beautifier
Of emotions that are expressed and deep.
