Certificate of Excellence for my poem, Pose?

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Pose?

To pose or not to pose?
That’s the question on this day of non-repose.
She stands, elegant,  regal,
Smiling into his chocolaty eyes, fall,
Falling into his soothing pool of love.

The depth of emotions that hiss
And run deeper than any abyss,
This moment in time will never come
Back again, for its novelty’ll dim
But never die in the pyre of time,

It’ll grow and flow into their
Joint lives of adoration as their
Tears of joy and sadness blend
Into sysmic waves that thrashed
Many a couple, but Not them!


Time will try to siphon their
Joint time into darkness,  but their care
Will stomp on time’s vain
Attempt to suck out the rain
Turning it into a melodic refrain.

Double Gold Certificate for my poem, Boomy Guitarist

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Boomy Guitarist

Her golden tresses frame a face
Filled with love’s faerie rhythm, grace
Embued the wind, a caress in a place

Where turbulent emotions soar
Unchecked, tempestuous, a roar
For help is put in place to aspire

For love to unfold in their breast
Sharing the volcanic crest
Assuaging pain with beauty’s behest

That arises from the boomy guitar
Whose notes, crisp, complex, flex on par
With the tsunami that resides on the far

Reaches of the shore, where the guitarist,
Whose antiquated clothing embrace the list
Of greavances his melody embodies, a fist

That punches out enemies of respite
With harmonic overtones that spite
Despair with a punch projection of flight.

Certificate of Appreciation for my poem: Woman Defined

Woman Defined

Courage thy name is Woman!
You’ve shown us your resilience
In the face of adversity that can
Drive strong men to their knees in case
Their worries overwhelm their ferocity,
Which is tempered by Her steadfastness
And confidence in Her ability
To nurture, when needed, cutting honesty
That’s never ending in its compassion.

Her armor, mask is that of love.
Her empathy lifts Her up.
Her education is Her weapon, a dove,
White, for its peaceful cup.
She’s endured degradation, oppression,
Slavery and desperation beyond
Caution, She moves into dominion
With Her tolerance that’s Her bond.

Bond of her heart that instigates
The need for freedoms.

5th Place for my poem,  Cradled Baby

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Cradled Baby

Look at that child smiling in his crib,
Unbeknownst to him his importance,  never glib,
He speaks when his mother couldn’t
Defend herself, protecting her reputation that shouldn’t

Have been in question, GOD giveth
When he pleases, and His pleasure’ breath
Give birth to a miracle child, carrying
The sins of humanity without complaining,

His resolve, strength of belief still
Affect people today,  although division may kill
Each other, while he preached peace,
Generosity, forgiveness, compassion that never cease

To assuage the burdens, stress
Of those who follow his teachings, flawless
In their discipline in everlasting values
That keep communities united in varied hues.

Wake us up to your harmony, a symphony
Filled with blessed peace not a cacophony
Of brittle minds, unbending as they face
Change with a blackened heart turned to grace.

Certificate Award for my poem,  Staying Power

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Staying Power

What’s poetry if not an agglomeration
Of words in rhyme and rhythm?
A world of poetic devices, accommodation
Of varied styles, structures that’s not grim?

What’s a love story
If not one that it has a start,
Climax, and end that’s happy or gory?
Where pink tinted Glasses reflect

The author and audiences
Need to escape life’s duties, stresses
That place tremendous pressures
On couples needing one anothers happiness’s

Without needing to compromise
Or putting in the hard work required.
‘What’s love?’, in that case?
That’s the staying power of being loved,

Loved for yourself,
Loved for your strengths, weaknesses,
Loved for your imperfections put on a shelf,
As your greatest power shines in smiles

That never dim while facing despair,
Despair That the bridge you’ve created
Can fall if your efforts only stare
Rather than repair the damage to be blessed.

Blessed by sharing love
With those of your inner circle
Who’ve proven loyal in grave
Circumstances while never living in a pickle.

The enchantment of poetic words
Lies in the esthetic that builds bridges
Between enemies, frenemies,  lords
Of your hearts, whose presence is in poetic cages.

Diploma Certificate  for my poem, Unbridgable Differences

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Unbridgable Differences

Their heartfelt embrace broke
With the quaking ground that tore, tore
Them apart and flooded the chasm that spoke
Of differences, unbridgable, a core, core

So radically divergent from the other
That rickety, flimsy slats bound, bound
By fraying ropes fall short to cover
The water separating a union found, found

In red’s passionate shroud dissipating
In a cloud of vapor where souls, souls
Soar into the ritulant sunset, grasping
For one another in a spiritual stroke of ghouls

Whose envy, susurations, capitulation
To pressures of a world of depravity, depravity
That bolsters disunity when coordination
And sacrifice would have paved a byway, byway

To an enduring love where spirits
And passion meet on a plane, plane
Of convergence, compassion whose flights
Soar with imagination into utopia’s crane, crane.

Slumbering passively on such power
Of love’s adulation is a great loss, Loss
To both parties and society for the coffer
Than holds sacred bonds collapse, collapse.

Accolade for my poem, Leave’s Lost Love

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Leaves’ Lost Love

We are at the cusp of diurnal times
When fall falls, leaves flee, and flown
Away into fleeting cooling breezes that crown
The tree tops in a bare coat of branches

And dying leaves whose love story
With the tree is as tragic as thee.
They try to stay connected with a fee
Of dried stems that can only cry

When the leaves finally fall
And their story ends in crackles,
Crunches of animals stepping on the backs
Of mummified soil with a tapestry full

Of golden, green, orange hues
Turning pallid the longer the stay
Before their love, weary of loss, play
The fools as they’re swept into pues

And cues to be taken and turned
Into paper for schools. The poor leave’s
Story of love is rejuvenated with heaves
A sigh of true connection with child

Whose doodles, words sweep
The pain of loss into sweeter
Reverence to new connections, beautifier
Of emotions that are expressed and deep.

Award of Appreciation for my poem, Inspiration

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Inspiration

To love or not to love? That the question
For today’s generation used to instant
Gratification,  unknowing that love is ministration,
Balancing act of give and take, sacrifice but
Never disillusionments for both are on the same cut
Wavelength that harmonizes actions, reactions,
That are bent on separation, but their love is inspirations.

Certificate of Achievement for my poem, Forgiving Love

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Forgiving Love

In computer language, when writing
Code the use of ‘if and only if’ is a representation
Of the double conditional of loving
And forgiving, for as you love, your adoration

Will inevitably permit you to forgive
For you give excuses for the mistake
Without even thinking twice,  for you have
Compassion, empathy for understanding that life is a cake

Sometimes, it’s sweet, fluffy,  delicious,
And others, flat, dry, inedible, unlivable.
So to forgive is to love, and to love’s a precious
Gift, you must forgive mistakes whose hurt is palpable.

Rest assured that when you apply
This motto, people will return it spontaneously
For life, Karma, is about give and take, happily
Sharing forgiveness and love is endlessly rewarding to both parties.

Award of Appreciation for my poem, Joy’s Ingenuity

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Joy’s Ingenuity

What’s creation if not joy?
Joy bundled in a swath of cotton,
Cotton, silky soft on delicate skin,
Skin of a babe just born,
Born out of joy, passion, love,
Love creates infinite possibilities,
Possibilities that’re positive habits,
Habits that build on cheer’s ploy,
Ploy that humbles man Whose ingenuity,
Ingenuity builds the impossible,
Impossible is always possible,
Possible when joy and creation are linked,
Linked at the hip for best results,
Results that blindside you with their power,
Power that’s breathtaking in nature.
