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.

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.

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.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
