Featured in the online ILA magazine,  poem, Frozen Frame

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

Frozen Frame

In a perfect sphere, where, in the snow
Falls in perfect harmony, gathering family
Feasting,  playing, with nothing contrary,
Only fun in the peaceful snowy glow.

The scene is set,
The people prepped,
The table bent,
The  children are a heavenly send.

The frozen frame is icy,
Covered in white powder whose
Calm settles into old bones,
Where memory is alive, but dicey!

For the child, it’s the here and now
That matters, while all else
Is icing on a cake, where the candle will blow,
And family is always best when many are less

And the anticipation of guessing
What’s in the box is filled with laughter
As outrageous ideas are a pleasing
Game that ends chortling giggler.

The frame is never lame,
It set the bar very high for following
Years, as its innocence came
With its childhood’s naive framing.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem, international writer day

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

International Writer’s Day
Acrostic

Internet has facilitated global connections
Never stop the growth of  wrIters
That rend their hearts as    theIr words flow
Empowering the weak to
Remember their worth
Never succumbing to oppression’s
Timely propagation that    cleAves
Intimate family                   meMbers into
Open enemity, clearly ‘Dividing & Conquering’
Needlessly aggressive, destructive,
Avid in mercilessly taking resources And
Leaving nothing to the Indigenous peoples.

Write, revel, rebel, roast, rumble the gruesome
Reality of a world built on Materialism
Instead of unity of humanity       peeP
That lends compassion and     succOr that
Eventually works together against thE oppressor
Ruining the ecology,                 separaTing family,
Solidifying Darwin’s rules of supremacy

Dealing in strength that overpowers others
Amid illegal, inhumane practices that have
Yet to be punished.

Diploma Certificate for my poem: Book’s Visionary

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

Book’s Visionary

Creating a world with paper and pen,
I watch my vision evolve to stun in a den
Of books, windows to the unknown,

They litter the shelves, organized
In alphabetical order for all it’s simplified,
But those unique books, mine, and those grown

In power as time passed, and some
Tried to surpass their Ideology that come
With experience, social living, wearing a crown

Of knowledge,  practicality, friendship
That coalesce into strong leadership
As your intellect expanded with the blown

Exposé of things that seem foreign
As your experience is limited to the line
Of things taught to you not learned with a frown

As you explore its meaningful message
While you look at other references, not a cage,
To amplify your understanding its daily application

Not just learning but doing, changing.
That’s the purpose of books of all genres, rebelling.

Tennis and ski

What Olympic sports do you enjoy watching the most?

Why those 2 you ask? Well simple really, I loved playing those sports and white I watch,  I feel the exhiliration of a strategically placed ball that ends up being a winner. As for ski, I can imagine feeling the speed, the wind, the icy feel of the snow, the danger of a fall, all the while embracing the beauty of the freedom it gives as you ski downhill.

National Poetry Day

Acrostic

Never needed a day to celebrate
A writing form such as poetry,
Terrifying in its simplicity,
Impossibly imaginative in its creation
On an auspicious day when fall
Never ends, but is reborn in
All its glorious colors of redish hues
Later, later, leaving you dressed in a crown.

Pottery bowls made of words are filled
Onto their rim, overflowing with
Eternal, laughter, life, love, all
Travel on a journey of discovery
Rendered bearable, only with poetry.
Yet, many have set it aside and forgotten

Devastation driven through ignorance
And approval of the prolific devastation
Your moral compass has fallen to.

In celebration of a day for the enjoyment of words that are flexible enough to describe your unbound imagination.

Author of Perfectly Flawed, poetry for change.

Soar Away, Uncaged

Being caged is no fun.
Some of my imagination is on the run,
It flees, flies into the sun,
Wile I sit with hand under my chin,
Wondering, when I’ll let myself out of the din
Of a world that cages my fin
Which helps me swim through the morass of sin.

The Groundsel Weed

Woman in my dreams,
Hazy features covered, as you please,
By groundsels whose hairy filaments
Soar around her, blankets
Her from head to toe,
Trying vainly to get closer to blow
Its velvety softness in a Tornado
Of white that sweeps in an elegant flow.

She contemplates its fragility,
Wondering at the reality
Of how daintily flimsy
Its flower is, while its stem is definitely
Rooted in her heart, prettily
Proving it’s longevity.

She reverently catches a blowing
Head, as she admires its flowing
Dance, whose strength is glowing
In a sensual litany that’s dizzying.

Dream of the flower that nestles
Its thorns into delicate hearts
That beats for imagination that bleeds.

Evil

Prepare,  preparing,  design,  designing,
Candies galore, pumpkins, scarecrows, witching:
The cauldron of doom, blood curdling, dooming;
House into haunting screams that are petrifying;
Possession of weaklings, turning them to demons: spine-chilling.

All Halow’s night, creeps, ghouls, and evil beings
Walk unobstructed for all to see and inspires
Villainy, vile, voracious jealousies
That promise money, rank, and powers
As long as you let evil reign over intellects.

At the witching hour, light streaks into the sky
Illuminating it with comet like arrows that vy
For attention as they fly by!
They bring knowledge,  light, perservereance, positivity,
And strength of will to annihilate all of evil’s cry.

Never fear the demons of Halloween,
For their imagination runs amuck, unseen.
But, reality is harsher, fiercer, more mysterious.
