Reviews for my poem, Lonely Moon

Thank you for the honor and your hard work. Im humbled by your empowering words

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab really vivid, clear imagery in this powerfully evocative piece. Thanks for sharing. X By Monty Baggins

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab A lovely poem about the moon shining on forest treetops covered with snow. Snow that hides footprints of human activity. In the moonlight the snow may seem lonely, but it may still turn to fun?
Your 9 lines, 5,4,7,4,6,4,7,4,5 syllable count, are beautiful descriptive; they set a compelling scene. Marie Harris, former New Hampshire poet laureate, is well known for experimenting with prose poems.  By Linda Powers O’Dell

Lonely Moon

The full moon shines
Above the forest
Treetops, where winter flurries
Deposit fluff,
White powder solid, hard
Ground hiding signs
Of footprints running, hunting
Loneliness to
Turn to fun alone.

Certificate of Outstanding for my poem,  Beach’s Stroll

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Beach’s Stroll

Hand in hand they stroll along the shore
Sandy footprints dissappear as swiftly
As they’re made, as their hands swing
Freely under the warm daylight, sunny

Ritulant rays caressing the fleeting time
That becomes nothing but memory
Imprinted on her heart, heavy crime
Of loss’ grime, leaving a residue of a ghostly

Chime of forgotten laughter,
Cuddles on scratchy sand that lingers
Longer than loss’ clam, whose wonder
In living without her partners’

Support, that she’s not a fan.
She gazes into the horizon
Waiting for a sign of rejoining the pan
That simmered with their love, not a poison

That could separate their camaraderie,
Understanding both weaknesses
And strengths that made the family
An unbreakable unit whose support suppresses

Stresses and anxieties built
In society to promote division
Of familial bonds so that compassion
Is lost, replaced by materialism and guilt.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, Sunset Shoreline

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Sunset Shoreline

Many warm, sunny days live
Live, happily in my memory bright,
Bright In the caressing rays of sunset,
Sunset as I ran with my GSD along,
Along the shoreline playing tag,
Tag each other and wrestle,
Wrestle in the wet sand,
Sand whose tiny molecules hide,
Hide everywhere in discomfort,  memory,
Memory of laughs, games,
Games that keep me on my toes,
Toes that leave footprints,
Footprints in the sand , erased,
Erased with the waves kissing,
Kissing the sand gently cradling,
Cradling its billions of grains,
Grains of sand shining in the dying,
Dying light as memory turns dark,
Dark with the night filled with lustrous,
Lustrous lucent quality,  wondrous,
Wondrous to gaze at its resplendent,
Resplendent glory that lives like a star,
Star in your memory bank, always sublime.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, 

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

Frozen Footprints

I swing around
My gazes abound
And stall. Frozen on the ground
By the footsteps that are never found.

Each step was an adventure, gone
And never seen, but remembered as one
Whose stature is alone
In memory and stone.

Adoration of all that’s long gone is futile,
For your recall is colored by a grapevine
Of emotions that are supple
And unmanageable.

Let it go!
Move on, throw
Caution to the wind, and blow
Away boundaries that limit your flow!
