Gold Certificate of Achievement for my poem, Creating Worlds 

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Creating Worlds

Utterance, words, sentences, verses,
Lines, stories, twirling, twisting, flusters
As they lay on the pages in twisters
As they create order from chaos that pulses,

Dances, rhymes, alliteration,  metaphor,
Personification, all and more catalyze
Into a wondrous tale that’ll organize
A timeline with a setting, incomparable per

It’s being sprung from imperfect
Humans whose despair, loneliness,
Drips into every letter in fitfulness
As they amalgamte into a perfect

Story line intermixing reality,
Fiction,  perception in a sign
That widens others’ perspectives in line
With a new narrative whose harmony

Strives to build a world of empathy,
Peace, understanding, theory
That centers around humanity
And its needs for guidance into morality.

Certificate of Appreciation for my poem,  Rutilant’s Beauty

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Rutilant’s Beauty

The rutilant light shimmered
A vision of beauty caressing
The flow of life that’s endangered
By chaos, war, and debauchery swinging
Their hammer of perception
As the one and only
Equation for life’s classification
Of rank, race, religion all blindly
Followed without question,
Critiquing is just an objection
To a reality that needs annihilation,
A rebuilding of ethics, an abbreviation
For strength of character that’s
Created trends, not followers of What’s
Unimportant: superficial beauties,
Revamped through surgeries
All looking like barbies
None too human, as they’re
Plastic, artificial,  unreal fear
Of loosing beauty’s power.

Certificate of Achievement for my poem,  Child Within

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Child Within

The world is in despair,
What a great pair
My dog and I fair
As we jump, hop with flair.

Yes, chaos reigns,
But the soul of the child remains
My best defense as it stains
The world In pains.

So I posture my inner Child
Whose laughter is a great ride,
Whose love has no pride,
Whose enjoyment is never a grind.

Live like that child in simplicity,
Don’t overthink the atrocity,
Don’t stress the depravity,
Do live in harmony.

Review and Gold Certificate for my collaborative poem with Vikas Arora,

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab
Vikas Arora
My warmest greetings!

​Yes! The collaborative poem connects with the theme of light and shadow.
​Analysis of the Poem
​The poem directly addresses the theme of light and shadow both literally and figuratively. It uses the contrast to explore concepts like creation, balance, emotion, and human nature. Here is a breakdown of how the poem connects to the theme:
​Creation and Balance: The first stanza uses the “shadows” as the origin of creation, with beauty being born “into light.” This sets up the idea that light and dark aren’t just opposites, but are intertwined and necessary for a balanced whole.
​Metaphor for Emotions: The poem extends the metaphor to human experience, comparing “pathos” (suffering, emotion) and “richness of soul” to opposing sides of a coin. This parallels the relationship between light and shadow, suggesting that both are essential parts of our inner world.
​Literal and Figurative Light Sources: The poem mentions the sun and moon as literal sources of light and shadow, but also gives them metaphorical roles. The sun’s “ablutions” and the moon’s “passions” are presented as forces that “coincide in stabilizing” the world. This reinforces the idea of balance between contrasting elements.
​The Unavoidable Shadow: The second poem brings in the personal, unavoidable nature of a shadow. The line, “Wherever you may go your shadow stays with you,” emphasizes that our “shadow” or darker side is an intrinsic part of us, a constant companion. This suggests that we cannot escape the duality of light and dark within ourselves.
​The poem consistently uses the duality of light and shadow to represent other opposing concepts like chaos and order, emotion and soul, and the divine and the mundane. The recurring idea is that these forces are not meant to be separated but exist in a state of interdependence, contributing to a harmonious or “mellow” whole.

👌Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful collaborative poem.
👏Congratulations! 👏👏🌷🌷🙏🏻🙏🏻🎉🎊

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Collaborative poem
Malak Kalmoni Chehab & Drvikas Arora
Canada                                    India
Theme: Light and shadow

Within the shadows, creation came from chaos
A reign out of which beauty was born
Into light, where balance isn’t a horn
That divides but embraces the two sides, pathos

And richness of soul, are opposing
Sides of the same coin of emotions,
Equipoised similarly to sun’s ablutions
And the moon’s passions coincide in stabilizing

A world where chos reigns and order
Is an afterthought for the selfish
Who are ruled by egos, pridefulness that dish
Out inequality destroying balance of the creator.

Drvikas Arora India
Light and shadow
Light and shadow are two sides of the same coin they make us realise that God is divine
The sun disburses energy and light while the moon spreads bliss and blight
The dawn heralds the arrival of the sun while the dark gleams because of the moon
The shadows of the sun and moon may vary and may be of different size the god has bestowed upon us his prize
Wherever you may go your shadow stays with you whatever else may leave you your shadow stays with you
The light and shadow make our mother earth mellow

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.

Honored to be a part of this group, Deemflum Falls

Thank you, administrators,  for the honor and your hard work 👏 🙏

Deemflum Falls

In the icy winter frost, the visit
To Niagara Falls is a balm on a troubled
Soul whose daily anxieties transform into mist
That continually rise above the falls, unmoved
By the chaotic madness of a world
Filled with death, murder, violence,
And destruction that require you to hold
Onto your sanity by turning to the deemflum face

Of letting your worries evaporate,
Like the misty fog, into skies so blue,
They pierce into a heart rarely in sync with fate
As the cacophony of splashing sheets of true

Blue raise your spirit into a haven
Of quietude balanced by the icy
Crunch of frozen shelves shedding cotton
Balls through the air like rainy

Pellets that strike a balance
Between the reality and what’s imaginary.

Certificate of Appreciation for my poem

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

Deafening Silence

The scariest sound is that of a silenced time
In nature, while you’re in the midst
Of a storm, the eye is ‘calm before the storm’


To the strident cacophony of howling winds that feast


Although the event’s transient accoutrements
Leave a world in chaos as it dissipates over land.
The wreckage of homes and possessions aren’t contents

….

Lives scattered into the sands of time as they bust
Through their raucous imprisonment with cheer
And optimism that has no end but in a bright burst.

Let your home be centered around you,
Making it transportable and new, as you
Enjoy its flimsy, distraught center in a cue.

Certificate of Excellence, poem: Wish For Peace

Wish for Peace

The fragile beauty of the dandelion
In my hand whose grip on land
Dares you to eradicate its presence in Zion
As it spreads through the wish for peace to lend

A hand to those in need of a blend
Of peace in their days of suffering
Without end.
Wish for peace for them to send

Their children to schools
With filled bellies of fresh food
Sprinkled with life giving water that drools
In honor of a wish for peace that stood

On the doorstep waiting, waiting
Patiently for humanity’s response
To help save those whose beliefs, never straying,
Empowers their wish for peace

For a new generation without
The need to revisit the trauma of today’s
Dire escalations of genocides in a bout
Of cataclysmic fear whose only wish is for peace.

Behind the Door

In a world where silence
Is a luxury at the core
Grab the peace
Where there’s only violence at the door.

How do you hold onto it?
How do you keep it, or
Stay sane in a fit
Where chaos is always at the door?

Silent Chaos

Reading ‘Silent Chaos’, a poem from my poetry book, Perfectly Flawed.
It’s about one’s ability to forget the world is there and focus on your inner-self’s need to be in a quiet place where your imagination can flow and bloom.
