Accolade and Review of my poem,  Free Speech

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Free Speech

Black cap and gown covering her
Blue eyes and Golden spun hair,
While the inspirational Statue of Liberty
Dares to hold its hand, plainly

Trying to obstruct her from
Speaking her mind, daring to come
Forward with the truth to resound
In media’s intifada while bound

In their thirst for FREE Speech
As they’re jailed for taking things out of reach
Of politicians suppressing truth
As the people dying aren’t white, but are couth

In their protests, while the police
Take away over two thousand in a thrice
To reduce the Roar for justice
That can never be returned to those advocating for peace.

Your time in office is running out
Ye of powerful friends in high places, scurry in a bout
Of flurried activities,  hidden from sight,
To better attain your objective: Money and Flight!

Certificate of Achievement for my poem,  Twilight Darkened Light

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Twilight’s Darkened Light

The night’s fading darkness
Is illuminated by filaments that glimmers
With piercing reddish hues
Into a horizon of fading darkened blues.

With each touch of brilliant, glinting light
The scenery is transformed,  bright
As a white pigeon in heightened flight,
Soaring, like Icarus, too near the sun’s slight

Heat that tenderly caresses its feathery
Wings across all living things, bravely
Broaching the new day optimistically,
Knowing that man’s destruction will invariably

Alter the breathtaking beauty of sunrise,
Twisting its vibrancy into shades
Of tenebrous grey, colorless, and lifeless,
As everything becomes hopeless.

Let each new day be your oath
To be stronger than the sun’s breadth,
As you emulate its depth
Of strength, that reigns above all in stealth.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem:

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

Children’s Hunger

Famine, hunger in such young eyes
Makes your heart flutter and cries
Out for the injustice of their plight
Where food is scarce and working is a fight

Among brothers, sisters, kin to survive,
Survive with enough only to strive
The next day, another forage, another clash,
To sustain an entire family in a brush

With death, daily success to survive
Kills the will to endure, while their eyes drive
Knives in your heart for their struggle,
Struggle to stay together and not take the last bubble

Of air before their father, mother,
Cousin bring a tiny loaf of bread, sharer
Of life giving nourishment is never enough
To end the hunger pains or despair enough

To feel safe that another day
Will shine bright with hope to sway
The powers to help end famine,
Children growing old before their time in fine

Slithers of hope that shine
Through black clouds of hopeless brine,
Brine of depression’s hold that flogs
The will to survive another empty stomach that bogs

Their thinking process to when’s
The next meal, how to get it, who’s pens
Do they take from to stave death
Another day where rest, play aren’t in their path.

Double Silver Certificate: Wormhole

Great thanks to the administrators whose hard work is always appreciated.  I’m honored they’ve chosen to present me with this accolade.

Wormhole

As the Wormhole siphones time,
It’s recycled and sent down for a prime
New look at what’s been done, as lime

Is sour and requires revisiting
Actions whose regret is culminating
In despair’s depression, hindering

All positive momentum. Stagnation
Halts your progress into a quagmire of rejection
Of all esthetics of developing a projection

Of change that surmounts captivating
Your potential, reigning in its joy, sunning,
Airing your problems, giving them wings, soaring

Into the azure skyline with birds, whose
Dire need for flight mirrors our soul’s
Urgent desire to relieve its cumbersome blows

Into a sea permitting you to see
The pivotal cacophony that clamors, like the bee
Buzzing to flee from the constraints that pee

On freedom’s liberating rebellion, key
To change and stomping on the caged monkey,
Man, who plays the ape to integrate into the sea.
