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.

Certificate of Distinction for my poem, Soar with Courage

Honored to be the first in this contest.  Thank you for the topics and your hard work.

Soar with Courage’s

Courage thy name is life,
Life filled with life altering decisions
Decisions needing mettle, fortitude,
Fortitude to dare what seems impossible,
Impossible for those cowards,
Cowards who prefer their comfort zone,
Zone where habits, schedules limit,
Limit your growth to stagnation leading,
Leading to a prison of your making,
Making your spirit dim till extinguished.

Award of Appreciation for my poem, Harvest Kindness

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Harvest Kindness

Like the roots through which life
Flows, fluctuates, and grows, flowers,
Bushes, forests blossom with ease, protectors
Of nature require no rewards in strife,

Drought, flood, or perfect weather,
Kindness given without expectations
Grows it’s own roots, foundations
For the hereafter that require prayer,

Respect given without limits,
Belief in the intangible, angels,
Nature’s wonderment, peace fills
Our hearts as we give and pits

Our disappointments against
Harvesting morality’s seeds
Granting Our harmony that pleads
For compassion’s empathy, a breast

Shoulder you can rely on in the worst
Times, for you’ve given freely
And your reward comes in heavenly
Support from all you’ve helped, the best

Conveyors of unrest, for they
Request only your grain of kindness
In a yield of pure emotion, bless
The quay where you can rest every day.

Accolade for my poem,  Journey in The Womb

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Journey in the Womb

As my umbilical cord feeds
My body, my mind listens to sounds,
Healing my anxiety for love, hunger,
Yet, as my hunger is assuaged, proper

My mind swims into a sea
Of possibilities about a future, per se
That I’ve only heard whispers
Of through parents, family, conversers

Around me speaking a language
I can’t decipher, but I dream of a page
Filled with goals, careers, that crave
Attention, hard work, and pave

The road to mama’s adulation,
For her bias is such that any competition
With myself is rewarded by smiles,
Cuddles, Hugs conquering piles

Of doubt that she murders
With simple pride that radiates
Through my success and comforts
In failures that bend self-worth in ports

Of darkness alleviated only
By recalling her strength properly
Reflected in the potions of TLC
She hands out, seeming effortless to see.

I vascillate in wanting to be
Just like her, or a teacher, like
Her, a fashionista, like her,
A passionate supporter, like her,

A believer, like her, but mostly,
I want her to be proud of the crazy
Child she raised who embraces
Life’s turbulent obstacles with prices

Paid in smiles for Karma will
Return my gift into a thousand pill
Against depression for my strength
Comes from her breath.

Certificate of Achievement for my poem,

Thank you, administrators, for the accolade and your hard work.

Youth or History

Don’t fall for the tripe of a conquering
Civilisation that wants to change you, integrating

Its morality, ethics, culture, and language
Assiduously, calmly Conquering the age

You live in by making it attractive
To all ages to turn away, as a hive,

From your history of warriors,
Chiefs, educators, and financiers

Whose beliefs are slowly eroded
To be replaced by the imposer that did

A casually psychological war
That divided families placing a bar,

Tangible in its flux of life,
As it reduces familial relationships to strife

And a love for the material
Replaced with everything that’s callous, cruel.

Their optimal goal is surrender
Of all that’s uniquely You, into a pretender

Whose history is dismantled
By its complete erasure and monument.

Diploma Certificate for my poem, Veiled Butterfly

Thank you,  administrators,  for the accolade and your hard work.

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.
