glow – Poetry for Change

Gold Award for my poem, Humanities Nature

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Humanity’s Nature

Faerie light floats with the speed of light,
Light approaching the sculpted rocky arch
Arch where art is chiseled in a cascade of bright
Bright geometric forms that parch
Parch the soul that has lost malleability
Malleability to change, not shatter at the sheer,
Sheer steap drops, highs that spurt,
Spurt the bubbly spring water flowing,
Flowing, glittering in the red rays,
Rays filled with harmony deep,
Deep within it flows through trees,
Trees, bushes, a stone bridge,
Bridge that fills the gap between light,
Light and darkness, good and evil,
Evil of selfish envy whose ego blows,
Blows out the balance within unity,
Unity that holds the folds of humanity,
Humanity Whose need for peace,
Peace is but a piece of mind that rest,
Rests and creates transient beauty,
Beauty that stuns into silence,
Silence where thought proceeds,
Proceeds to learn to feel the presence
Presence of haloed reverence in
In humanity’s nature.

Accolade for my poem, Practice Run

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Practice Run

Potted plants are sentinels to the mirror
Whose framed crown is of golden leaves, a proper
Accoutrement to the geometric carpet for

The bride’s solo walk down the hall
Where glass lets the ritulant ball
Of sunny rays fall

And highlight the beauty walking
In her silvery white mini dress, swaying
To the music only she’s hearing

In her head. Her hair flows around
Her naked shoulders covered
Only by a spaghetti strap held

In place by a sweetheart bust,
With a pencil skirt, shiny studs, a must
To twinkle with a flare that places lust

Invisible in the hearts of men
For she’s not theirs to pen-
In like a hen.

Though she glitters in sophistication,
She’s a simple woman needing adoration,
Returning it a thousand fold in construction

Of a family filled with unity,
Acceptance, support, faith whose sheeny
Gleam encompasses their home with sunny

Dispositions that help them flow
And navigate a world of chaos that’ll blow
Their illusions of a world that’s all faux.
