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.

Accolade for my poems,  Resistance Is Futile  & Veiled Butterfly

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

‘Resitance is Futile’*1

We’re being bombarded, daily,
By subliminal messages, hourly,
Whispers of drugs, violence, alcoholics’ enduced hazes, minutely,
Incorporated in ALL media, compulsively.

Resistance is Futile …

Words, sounds, images coalesce
Into an indoctrinated presence
That’s insidious in its convergence
Into your mind, creating a blinding trace

For behaviors that are incongruent
With ‘our’ Ideals of humanity, that are esculent
By mediocrity of addiction becoming permanent,
As our dependence skyrockets into exponent …

‘Resitance is Futile’ …

As our struggles persist,  our
Vision, imagination, purveyor
Of our strength of cohesion, flutter
Into a bud that flourishes in power.

As ‘Resistance is Futile’,

Our obstacles remain tangible,
Yet, clearly, unattainable.
The need to strive to be corrigible
Is embedded in our DNA, for hope is always tenable.

Thus:
‘Resitance is (Not) Futile.’


*1. Star Treck, the Borgh, a a cyborg entity trying to Conquer worlds, says this to Captain Pickard when they wish to invade earth.

Veiled Butterfly

Her veil of flowers and butterflies
Flit around her head as her eyes
Wander into the night skies.

Her beauty shines through
Her astounding eyes of blue,
Framed by lashes of a brownish hue.

Her rosy lips stutter with each
Winged flap, trying vainly to catch
The flight of the butterfly and latch

Onto its fringes and take flight
With her fantasms in direct conflict
With reality’s nightmarish bite.

Her lashes flutter as her revelry
Into a utopian wonder clashes sensibly
With a reality where her veil is horribly

Marred by Stereotypes that bind
Perceptions of beauty of the mind
To terrorist activities that make you grind

Your frustrations for a lack of understanding
And communication that’s building
Roadblocks that inhibit freedom of living.

Diploma for my poem,  Book’s Visionary

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Book’s Visionary

Creating a world with paper and pen,
I watch my vision evolve to stun in a den
Of books, windows to the unknown,

They litter the shelves, organized
In alphabetical order for all it’s simplified,
But those unique books, mine, and those grown

In power as time passed, and some
Tried to surpass their Ideology that come
With experience, social living, wearing a crown

Of knowledge,  practicality, friendship
That coalesce Into strong leadership
As your intellect expanded with the blown

Exposé of things that seem foreign
As your experience is limited to the line
Of things taught to you not learned with a frown

As you explore its meaningful message
While you look at other references, not a cage,
To amplify your understanding its daily application

Not just learning but doing, changing.
That’s the purpose of books of all genres, rebelling.

Certificate of Appreciation for my poem, POETRY

What an honor. Thank you for your hard.

Acrostic
POETRY

Poet, poem, poetry  policing a world in poppery
Overcoming chaos through order, design,
Entertaining critically, changing constantly,
Traversing cultures, emotions in a single jump,
Running freely as long as the ink is writing
Yet, you feel unheard, for the world is in woe.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem,  Miracle of the Mind

Thank you for the honor and your hard.

Miracle of the Mind

The miracle of the mind has yet
To be cracked by science’s tech that let
The population believe AI is better,

Better than the mind that can
Create heaven or hell in a scan
That flips a switch depending on the fan

You’re surrounded by, friend
Is heavenly,  hell is enemy,  that bind
The mind in a special centrifuge that’ll lend

A whirl into the cast of hell
Where actors, environments, alter to try and fell
Your ability to succumb to their tell

Of a story built in hell. So the mind
Sets barriers that turn hell to heaven, find
The source of it in a heart that’s kind,

Turn the circumstances into a boast
Of power: an ability to change gears in a crest
To survive life’s test.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, Silver Light

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Silver Light

Silver light shines so bright,
Reflects on your surface in a fight
To blot out the blight
Of oppressive night.

As it shimmers on the lake
At night, it dances with shadows, fake
In their adulation of your stake
In everything that’s ensconced in black.

Its silver sheen is reminiscent
Of the clouds’ silver lining that bent
The impossible to their heaven sent
Hope, that relies on faith not being absent.
