Certificate of Excellence for my poem, What If?

What an honor!

What If …

What if war was a warm wreathe
Filled with colors that please?

What if snow’s icy feel was velvety
Warm and inspires healing coldly?

What if humanity hummed a hymn
Filled with hope, harmony haunting grim?

What if there is only acceptance,
Understanding, friendship, peace?

What if your entourage were supportive
And fulfilled its quotient of depression’s curative?

What if the sky and seas became
One, melding colors, baking but grim?

What if the mountains and valleys
Came together in a crash of ash and clays?

What if the living and dead walk
The earth together,  what will they about talk?

What if you’re born an adult, regress
Into babyhood, then die as a baby’s bless?

What if black were white, and white
Were black, how would dichotomy be a plight?

What if time leapt back to lack technology,
Would humanity still have posterity?

Accolade and Review for my poem,  Angel Wings

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab What a magnificent, brilliant heroine! Building her community through the strengths of her empathy and integrity, she overcomes the forces of death. She empowers others with her hunger for equality  and her devotion to ethics. I love how you feature her hunger for equality, this is the foundation for truly encompassing empathy. This poem is beautifully written, Malak; you’ve created a wonderful poetic form with superb rhymes and flowing rhythm. Your compelling images and organized thoughts sweep the reader along in a most wonderful way. Brava!! By Linda Powers O’Dell

Angel Wings

Her acorn blondish hair frames
Her blue eyed eyes, piercing
In their gaze, all seeing
As her grey wings flutter in rhymes

Whose utter grace have underlying
Silver rays that brighten, coalesce
Atop her heart in blissful radiance
Shining like a star, brilliant in showcasing

Her inner heart filled with humanity,
A hunger for equality that stalls
When faced with impunity that crawls
Inconspicuously, stealthily, stealing

Her ethics, yet, she prevails
Using her empathy, strength
Of will to overcome the killing breath
Of death from peers who quails

From her integrity’s effervescence
She builds her community
Of supports, like minded dwellers, impossibly
Impoverished by their beliefs’ conscience

They empower others and selves
To push forward against trends.

Triple Diamond Certificate for my poem, Rose of the Book

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Rose of the Book

From this page of the ancient book,
This delicate pink rose has traveled
The seven seas, ancient empires have seased
To exist, while its beauty, color, and break

Grow into the roots of the nook in the book
As it cascades its freshness, fragility,
Strength, and independence in lacy capacity
Of petals that rise towards the sun to look

On humanity’s history book
Guarding its secrets, fragile, violent,
Yet, it rebels and grows still resplendent
In a lackluster world filled with a crook

Intent that borders on sacrilege against the book
Of God, that brooks no uncertainty
In knowing that the perpetrators will simply
Be punished for their irreverent belief in a look

Of masked piety that reveals its artifice
When faced by the innocence of the blooming rose.

Certificate of Excellence for my acrostic poem,  PEACEFUL

Thank you for the honor and your hard work

PEACEFUL

Perfect purity is putty, muddy
Endlessly being turned into war
Anchoring evil doers in thrones of power
Carnivorous in their cruelty, heinous
Evil activity that needs to be repudiated
Far into a cave to emprison them so the
Umbrella of peaceful camaraderie that
Lent humanity a community of unity.

Review for my poem, The Sea

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab excellent!! Love the ‘displaying to humanities burrs’ line! The sea transfiguration into the imagery if bees resting in trees is masterful! 🫡🫡🫡👍👍👍🙏👏👏👏❤️🏴‍☠️ By, Zac Warden

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 a 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 on wonderment on the seashore
In contemplation to be sure

That life’s bliss rises and falls,
Happiness comes in waves and balls,

While nature of the sea stays true,
Unchanging except for the seasons blue,

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

As Memories sway in the waves to freeze
In a captured picture to rest like bees in trees.

Award of Appreciation for my poem, Rights of War

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Rights of War

Winners of wars determine the history
Propagated to newer generations
In a bid to sway sympathy
Away from the destructions

That took place, as though hiding
Them would erase the truths
Of desolation,  Rubble, exploding
Buildings and bodies whose loss of breaths

Determine the storyline of the victor
Rather than about justice, rights,
Humanity, compassion to war prisoner
Whose degradation was placed in highlights

Of social media to consume like
Breakfast, while they resume their
Lives as passive observers who place a pike
In the hearts of survivor.

Accolade and Review for my acrostic poem, TEAM WORK

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab I really enjoyed this unpacking of “team work,” Malak! You capture so many poignant characteristics: the satisfaction of doing one’s best, the compromise of egos, the goals achieved, and best of all, the affirmation that people can be kind as they work together. Wonderful! I wish this poem could be shared everywhere people are collaborating. By Linda Powers O’Dell

TEAM WORK

T esting the limits of your abilities
E njoying the satisfaction of a Job well done
A nother victory for lack of egos
M aintaining the peace among the team

W orking together to achieve
O NE goal: progress and change that
R ejuvenate our hopes and beliefs that
K indness still exists, and humanity is not extinct.

Certificate of Excellence for my acrostic poem, BELONG

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

BELONG
Acrostic

Be the change in the seasons
Eternal flexibility,  flow follows
Longevity, for if you bend with
Only power, you’ll break and despair will
Need an abyss to contain its weight,
Gone are the times of humanity’s compassion, only death is left.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem,  Writing Visions

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Writing Visions

In the depth of autumn’s fury,
The day has a ritulant glow
Encasing her gold tresses in a halo
Of light As she holds her pen, poised, to carry

Her vision of a world filled with cheer,
Shimmering over the river’s shore,
Accepting her peaceful humanity where fear
Is a forgotten feeling that seeps through pore

Flooding away its trauma, building
New communities, integrated with purpose
As she watches addictions evaporating
And discipline, righteousness are the cause

Held dear to all. She keeps her pen
Over the paper, wishing, wishing
That life as she knows it dissipates into a hen-
House, encasing all the negativity and fishing

Out the best of optimism’s cry
That resonates into souls needing to fight.
