I’m Flabbergasted by these stats

I’ve usually taken to checking the stats for my blog, and received a birthday gift worthy of billions: 332 views in the past week.  The most I’ve ever gotten was 58.  So, I thank you fellow readers, followers,  friends, family who are my secondary support system for my writing.  I believe I’ve grown as a writer who has a social conscience that reverbarates in my writing.   I also believe that my optimism  and hope are clearly reflected,  which also attracts readers.

I pledge to write more and share with you my favorite pieces, or those that are favored! 😅

My poem, Cathedral Lights,  honored by Invisible Poets

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

Cathedral Lights

As the night covered the sky in a blanket
Of black,  the sudden lights in the tower
Lit up, like a Christmas tree, fit for a fight,
The most important one: Faith, prayer,

And belief in the here after
Whose work takes place in living
A life of discipline, a strength barer
For it gives you power for knowing

When to listen, stay calm, or fight.
Looking upon those brilliant
Lights is a beacon of peace at the height
Of chaos, violence, and war that can’t

Be put out, but that Cathedral,
Its age, architecture, and what it
Stands for: peace, acceptance, a call
To self-respect by realizing that belief built

The Cathedral within with all its
Grandor, elegance, survival, and brilliance
That outshines any building whose parts
Are man-made, while its faith has an innate luminescence.

Certificate of Apreciation for poem: Ordinary Man

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

Ordinary Man

Famous fallen heroes are fighters,
Soldiers,  warriors who’ve fought
For home, community, country and brought
Pride into hearts of family and trooper,

But the unsung heroes are those
Who fight without the need for accolades
That instill an extrinsic need that hides
Their true purpose: fame that’s close

To worship, while the ordinary man


Laws created to keep the world Civilizing
And lauding humanity’s restraint put in a guild

Cage, like an exotic animal, seen
But never heard, in a prison where bars
Isolate him, with his PTSD, like any warriors,
Who’ve delt in monstrous murder, that’s keen.

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.
