Certificate of Excellence for my poem, Foundation of Love

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Foundation of Love

What comes out of love?
From love, all creation is born, as you rove
On this earth in search for more, from cove

To plain, to desert, to mountain top
You run in search for its root, and hop
To its tune, rhythm, rhyme to feed the soul that sop

Of identity, compassion, humanity,
That intermingle, intertwine, two souls of purity
Bound together to infinity.

Not as possession, not a claim, rather
Emotions that run the gamut from fear,
Pain, disillusionment, cheer, joy, all clear

As they mend the broken parts of each
Font of pleasure that surmount the bunch
Of negativity that oppresses like a crunch

Yet, love, its golden halo of purity
Engulfs the two in a hug transcending timely
Obstacles, turning them into change powerfully

Entwining lives into a single soul
Whose only goal
Is addressing the plunder of love’s bowl.

Triple Diamond Certificate for my poem,  Her Home of Glass

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Her Home of Glass

Her home is made of glass,
Glass bottle that only bubbles,
Bubbles with her emotions, bottled,
Bottled up from fear,
Fear of a release that’ll explode,
Explode in shards of glass,
Glass that’ll embed in skin,
Skin that’s thin, easily penetrated,
Penetrated, fragile, vulnerable,
Vulnerable to injuries physical, emotional,
Emotional that devastate the psyche,
Psyche where trauma resides,
Resides in the our hearts,
Hearts that decay with anger,
Anger that makes us decimated in hunger,
Hunger for peace that’ll turn,
Turn her glass paradigm into solid,
Solid unpenatrable armor,
Armor that protects, unbreakable,
Unbreakable when faced with difficulties,
Difficulties of life that pulverize,
Pulverize the heart and mind,
Mind that needs peace to reside calm.

Double Gold Certificate for my poem, Boomy Guitarist

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Boomy Guitarist

Her golden tresses frame a face
Filled with love’s faerie rhythm, grace
Embued the wind, a caress in a place

Where turbulent emotions soar
Unchecked, tempestuous, a roar
For help is put in place to aspire

For love to unfold in their breast
Sharing the volcanic crest
Assuaging pain with beauty’s behest

That arises from the boomy guitar
Whose notes, crisp, complex, flex on par
With the tsunami that resides on the far

Reaches of the shore, where the guitarist,
Whose antiquated clothing embrace the list
Of greavances his melody embodies, a fist

That punches out enemies of respite
With harmonic overtones that spite
Despair with a punch projection of flight.

Accolade for my poem, Regrets Fly

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab
Fantastic poem, Malak! Yes, we should cry out our emotions, our fears and frustrations. (By doing do we learn more about what we’re going through.) Sharing our pains encourages others to do the same.
Excellent turn of focus created by your wordplay on “pyre” and “lyre.” For all our “degrading fears,” there is hope of triumph, a great harmony within awaiting. We only have to listen and sing the angelic tune. I love your use of the musical refrain, very like Shakespeare. Excellent poem!! By Linda Powers O’Dell

Regrets Fly

Flaming fever fires fly,
Fly into the night sky,
Raise your voice and cry.
Fal la la la la la

Cry out your emotion,
Feelings of despair, confusion,
Give them free reign to perception,
Fa la la la la la

Share to teach so others
Express sensations plaguing their powers
Of cheer that ends in tears,
Fa la la la la

Tears of lament whose fire
Burns hotter than the sun’s pyre,
Yet, prevailing over them in great success is a lyre
Fa la la la la

Lyre of angelic tunes create harmony
From within, reveling in the conspiracy
Of triumphing over degrading fears of being followers.
Fa la la la la

Diploma for my poem,  Cellist’s Song

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

The Cellist’s Song

His mahogany cello is tightly embraced,
He cradles the bow as its wolf tones
Create an echo into the roiling waves, tones
That crest and dip into an abyss forced

To struggle with the undertow
To rise and be heard. Its metronomes
Have a tempo that moves feelings, homes
For emotions that crawl out of the flow

Of notes composed and diligently
Played to tell a story of heartache that’s
As old as time, yet, it’s everlasting plots,
Themes still apply today. So play, soar like a butterfly

From the cello’s strings, emote
The chaos within,  share its thrill
As you play the emotions of the audience that fill
Your mind’s eye even if they’re absent. So gloat

In your supremacy in affecting
People’s empathy, humanity
Through simple notes that fly
Into the breeze with ease and humility.

Award of Excellence for my poem, Recalcitrant Vision

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Recalcitrant Vision

All art is a view of life perceived
Through the eye of the artist who
Interprets his emotional response through
The media of art he drew and traveled
Into his world of choice where illusion,
Pink tinted glasses, or blackened ones, are a division

Only the artist can create within the piece
Of art that he sees in his mind’s eye,
Reproduces it, and there’s always the fly
That’s never as exact as the vision, a place

Where flexibility,  imagination run rampant
But can be recreated perfectly,
So the artist’s interpretation of life’s study
Is always in perfidy that’s recalcitrant.

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.

Diploma Certificate for my poem,

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

Betrayal’s Ease

Shattered! Shattered mirror on the wall,
Tell me the tale of this broken heart,
Heart that was given in good faith, fall
From its bubble of joy unbound, ’till It start

Seeing a change in behavior
From her once loving spouse.
It started with little things, later
Home arrivals, short temper, grouse

As though she hasn’t accomplished
Her duties: caring for kids, perfecting
The art of home management, all his favored
Dishes made, all’s organized, unspoiled

Respect for his need to rest
After a strenuous day of work,
Not unlike hers,  but does hers count?
You might ask. The answer is, it’s all work!

Then, she finds a jeweler’s receipt,
Waits several days to receive the gift,
But nothing comes of it except pain that leapt
Creating doubt, dishonor,  hurt, she feels like a thrift

For her only treasures from him now
Are the angels asleep as she worries
What’s next.  He comes home with undies
In his pant pocket. She recognizes

The brand, of course,  it’s not hers!
She decides to shelve her negative
Assumptions,  deciding to give another’s
Chance to either talk about it or walk away to live

Without her beauty, compassion, freshness,
Empathy that come in her brand of flair,
A flair that’s still attractive, needing caress
That’ll alleviate what presses the air

Out of chocking lungs that can’t breathe
From the devastating betrayal that doesn’t ease.

Diploma Certificate for my poem,  Rainbow of Rain

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

Rainbow of Rain

Rainbowed love starts
In red hot passions
To orange hearts expanding,
To yellow glow brightening
The green of acceptance, change,
And growth whose prosperity
Turns into liquid blues,
Those of summer skies
Filled with potential of rains
That alter fallow lands
Into plentiful harvests.
The same as love’s abilities
To change others from singles
To a unit that expands
With the colors of rainbows
That are always varied,
Exiting changes that carried
Your worries under two mind
Supporting one another in a find
Filled well of love that carries
Change like loving swaddles
Embraced in four arms of loves.
The journey begins with a meeting,
Attraction, connection, all can be fleeting,
But you sacrifice, compromise, communicating
All your hopes, then, them entwining
Like the purple wisteria, two souls
Becoming one, growing a family that cools
Their stresses, soothes their anger,
As their flow is like the ocean water,
At times tranquil, others terrifying squalls
That end in making up sessions, falls,
Never, for they’re committed
To one another, wedded.

POET OR AI, by Malak Kalmoni, published at Masticadorescanada

Staring at the blank page, I wonder which words will Walk in the journal of the age Of fake people, news, expectations that kill The soul of creativity replaced, Replaced by AI, that seems to insist It will take over ingenuity, graced By humanity’s wondrous spirit whose gist Is made of light, dark, and grey.
