greens – Poetry for Change

Platinum Certificate for my poem, Encased in Flowers

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Encased in Flowers

She seems to float over flowers
Pastel colored in pinks, lilacs, beige,
Surrounding her while they adorn her beige
Print dress filled with flowers.

Her svelte figure elegantly slides
Across the garden she walks through,
Her mind filled with beauty’s flow,
Effect, inspiration that has no ends.

To her each flower is a promise
Of power, where fragility isn’t vulnerability,
No its delicate countenance presumably
Is nothing but appearance,

Their roots are sturdy,
Their leaves filled with hues of greens,
Their slim stem carries hope that leans
Towards humanity in simple beauty.

Diploma for my poem, The Sea

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

The Sea

Colors, oh Colors of the sea
Dazzle my eyes to see

Your beauty’s blue hues
That impress our views

Of many blues: turquoise blues,
Greenish blue, yellowish browns, in special purviews

Where waves clamor to touch shore
In an uproar of rebellion against the sand floor

That speaks to capture its treasures
By displaying them to humanity’s burrs

As their speech, music, song, laughter
Only receed as the sun explodes in color

In a splendor of yellows and reds
That blend into sparrows of reeds

Changing in harmony with the depth of
Fear that time ends with this falling night that’s enough.

I sit in wonderment on the seashore
In contemplation to be sure

That life rises and falls,
Happiness comes in waves and balls,

While nature of the sea stays true,
Unchanging except for the season’s blue,

So enjoy the joy of the quiet balm breeze with
Compensation for a troden soul lifted to breathe.
