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.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, Silver Light, with a Review of my poem, by Dominique Ericilla Albano

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.

“Silver Light” by Malak Kalmoni Chehab is a poem that fits the theme “Whispers of the Night”. The poem explores the quiet, mystical atmosphere of the night, where the silver light of the moon shines bright, bringing hope and faith to the darkness.

The poem effectively captures the whispers of the night through the use of sensory language, with phrases like “night whispers fly” and “faith that whispers in corners sly”. The speaker’s emotions are palpable, and the poem conveys a sense of longing and hope.

*Line Count

There are 16 lines in the poem. The poem’s structure is well-executed, with a consistent rhyme scheme and meter that adds to its musicality. The language is rich and evocative, with a focus on the symbolism of the silver light and the moon.

Overall, the poem is a beautiful exploration of the theme “Whispers of the Night”, and it effectively captures the mystical and hopeful nature of the night.

Congratulations 👏

Accolade for my poem,  Double Rainbow

Thank you for the accolade and your hard work.

Double Rainbow

Rainbows around the world have hope
Tethered to their appearance after storms
That hit unexpectedly, yet their shine comes
With brilliance as they obliterate upheavals, you cope

With daily routines that dull your cheer,
Yet, when a double rainbow appears,
Double the gifts simultaneously, become freer
As worries dissipate like vapor without fears

They might return for beauty casts
A shadow of splendor coated in a Golden
Sheen, a treasure of unparalleled pasts
That throw away their appreciation of being beholden

To beauty that revives our belief that
Life should be appreciated every moment
For it’s gone the next, or anxious despair  that
Coat your soul with a monstrous blight:

An evil trying to seep your wonder
Into depravity, an evil whose darkness
Places an endless abyss, never
Grace, within that devours turning you helpless.

Diploma for my poem, Dangling Moon

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Dangling Moon

Sitting on the tip of the crescent moon
Dangling my legs, pushing off, swinging
As though the moon embraced me in a cocoon
Of life’s laughter, lighter than lightning,

Brighter than the stars’ brilliance,
A comforter of the soul closer
To heaven’s doors, seating, no coincidence
That the moon hovers, never a loser,

But changes everyday in looks
From crescent to full moon,
Each highlights its own beautiful hooks
That enliven hope like a boon,

A boon from GOD to humanity,
A circle of dazzling blessings
Enrobing my imagination’s memory, flowy
Possibilities into dreams, not guessings,

No certainty that the light of poetry shines
To guide my plight into a roadmap
Of strength built on patience, never fines
Me more than I can conquer in a lap.

As I swing on memories that mirror
My plight of losses that that flow
Like the changes in the moon, a bower
For rest as I swing on the crescent’s glow.

Award of Appreciation for my poem, Joy’s Ingenuity

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Joy’s Ingenuity

What’s creation if not joy?
Joy bundled in a swath of cotton,
Cotton, silky soft on delicate skin,
Skin of a babe just born,
Born out of joy, passion, love,
Love creates infinite possibilities,
Possibilities that’re positive habits,
Habits that build on cheer’s ploy,
Ploy that humbles man Whose ingenuity,
Ingenuity builds the impossible,
Impossible is always possible,
Possible when joy and creation are linked,
Linked at the hip for best results,
Results that blindside you with their power,
Power that’s breathtaking in nature.

Award of Excellence for my poem, Puissance of Power

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Puissance of Power

Courage to fly beyond your abilities
Takes you farther than when you’re
Restricted into the confines of strategies
That work only within the limits that are

The core of your strengths, believing
That’s all you can accomplish
Will invariably render your power into muting
Its progression into achieving the lavish

Impossibility of the strictures
You’ve established as your growth
Is stunted by the bars of your own raptures
That you’ve chained into a caged breath

That only takes you no farther
Than the nose, tangible, in sight
And touch, but believing in the freedom, power
Of inner puissance that’s untapped unless you fight.
