Certificate of Achievement,  May’s Spring

My poem received the above certificate of achievement.

May’s Spring

My eyes are always turned to the sky,
Where beauty and simplicity vie
For supremacy in an empty spacy.

Birds of all kinds fly by, flocking,  migrating,
Setting new habits for their chicks’ living
Quarters that are overflowing with forests, changing
With each new flock that’s arriving.
Live honoring nature’s power,
Its giving nature that is a bower
Of safety when you need a lover
Without motives, who is only a supporter.

Embrace your brethren in humanity,
Their races receding into the vicinity
Of acceptance,  that all Man is emotionally
And physically the same, all have red blood.

Feelings, passions, and red flowing blood
Saunter into each’s body in a flood
Of confusion that needs sorting and bud,
Swamping everyone with a unique personage.

Burgeon into your character,
Let your wings flutter,
Soar like a flower petal as the breezer
Tries to alter your course, but you are its conqueror.

WORLD POETRY DAY


double acrostic

Wondrous words Whirl around and
Over a reality created by wOrlds in images, that are
Readily available foR consumption,
Leading to leveling the fieLd of wonder
Down into a frozen Dream filled with rhyming

Poetic world made up of a Plethora
Of offerings of a utopian bOunty imagined by an
Eternal imagination nevEr grinding
To a stop, as its renewed Tunneling to greater
Rewards as newer worlds aRe revealed
Yearning for the crY of revelations.

Certificate of Excellence

Love

To love or not to love

That’s another rhetorical question

Of life’s mysterious needs drive

People insane when having a conversation.

Two Certificates of Excellence

Loose not End (exert)

To lose or not to lose,
That is the question that’s not a ruse.

Failing to achieve your goals
Can be a piercing knife to souls

That fall into depression if their
Goals are delayed or failed, their flair

Is indomitable in its will to overcome obstacles
That bend your will, but it’s never broken or stills.

Betrayal (exert)

Of my country and of my family
I have little to say, except that funny
Interactions are not always sunny …

A country’s politics and sense of justice
Can disappoint. Its favor is sandy grace
That’s gritty, scratchy, and hurts in place
Of unity that proves our solidarity in face

Of torment, terror, injustice, that train
Citizens in complacency that will rain
Upon them death, disillusionment that fain
A reality that exists in dreams that are slain.

Certificate of Excellence, Quick… Loss

Quick … Loss

Exert

Loss and death are as quick as breath.
Run and hide trying to evade its breadth.
I look upon its specter as I hold my breath.

Loss and death are as old as millenia.
Run and hide, as time is never vanilla,
But a manila cover in which to hide sista.

Loss and death are as varied as a bow.
Run and hide, and never stay in a row,
That keeps you stuck in a silent blow. …

Certificate of excellence, Cupid’s Valentine

Cupid’s Valentine

The month of love and adoration
Is the shortest one of all!
Not all happiness can be packed into its summation,
Short, though it is, its effects are a ball!

In its center, couples celebrate their love,
As if you only praise your unity, then!
And every other day falls short of its possessive
Hold on your cheery life filled only with a pen.

The one you use to organize your life,
Strategize your next goal, perfect compassion
That leads to compromise and less strife,
While dissent and enmity to envy’s fashion.

Duty and love are two sides of a coin,
Where duty can choke the life out of veneration
As it stomps out the cheer from your conjoin.

Places, people, and events

What makes you feel nostalgic?

As the new year approaches, you look back and realize that you’ve grown as an individual, while others are stuck in a rut. As I remember my past obstacles and breakthroughs, I recall my childhood holidays filled with aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins, and friends gathering under 1 roof. The noise, laughs, cries of fear for a too mischievous child were part of the atmosphere of unity.

Today, only a few hours remain for a brand new year to start, a blank slate, maybe?

Never.

Life is cumulative, and there’s always context for actions and reactions. I wish for simplicity in life to return, where actions don’t need to have double or triple meanings, but where honesty, love, peace, and equality are the only values that are enacted by all.

2 Certificates of Excellence in 1 Day!

Yayyyyy!

Sky, Soil, GOD

As I look above, the sky’s scintillating
Colors, whether sunrise, twighlight, sunset, or night
They inspire moods that vary, like colors devoting
Beauty to your every versatility, like a kite
In flight, I realize, GOD, is all around
Doling out beauty for your joy that’s found

In being beside you when times
Are exciting, cheerful, depressing,
When you look down upon ecosystems
Surrounding you with miracles, outstanding
In their simplicity: ant home, beehives,
Even larger predators, the need survives

In each one, human, animal, insect,
Knowing YOU’RE present everywhere
Above, below, and at our side. In fact,
That knowledge is what initiate
Our appreciation for all GOD’S creations,
Also innately aware of your presence’s jubilations,

That empower all to subjugate
Negativity with optimism, transforming
Our core into being compassionately humane.

Certificate of excellence, Flighty Hearts

Flighty Hearts

Love our paper hearts
Easy to tear,
but cuts
Like a bear.

Its unique shape
Lends to despair,
When it broke
By your hand and air.

Its unique shape
Rises into fullness,
Then dips in face
Of falsehoods that pierce…

Look into its shape
That seems divided
Into yay and nay, a cape
Of vascillation that cried,

Its tear wails
Till eye sight goes blind
With too many choices
And decisions that bind.

Oh ye who have
A paper heart,
Let its love
Blind you and never cut.

Certificate of Excellence, Cow Girl Baby

Cowgirl Baby

Cowgirl boots, shorts, and off the shoulder
Shirt, a toddler holding the phone
Speaking to her brother, who’s far,
Far from home. She gurgles her love,

At times incomprehensibly, laughing
At his replies that have adoration
Light up her eyes as hearing
His voice is her drug of choice, a succession

Of discordant sounds, she interprets
With a beatific cacophony of cries
That invade your heart with warmth that’s
A test to your all encompassing hearts.
