Thank you for the honor and your hard work. Here’s to applying the wish into reality: living without war.
Gentle Core
Look, look upon the Azure blue sea It shines brilliantly of hope for all to see, No storms, battles, violent death mar Its crystalline shores with dismantled bodies, far From blemish free for purity, innocence
That need to flourish in childish Wonder, grow their curiosity without polish So their imagination is catapulted Into the stratosphere of flight, never endangered For war is a foreign concept without gore
They thrive on challenges galore That make a humongous score Into inventions, creations that never bore, Using them To improve life’s spore That’s harvested with gentle kindness of the core.

Diamonds glitter in her ears, studs of stars Shining brighter than the moon, Pearls adorn her neck, snowwhite flakes bares The city scape in a romantic glow, flown
With the wind of time as another Holiday season, decorated to impress, Flies by with a peaceful blanket of snow, a cover Of harmony, calm flow of steady Snowfall dropping on her jeweled Hair and neck, icy cold, bright gold, fluffy, Velvety feel like a mother’s hug, hold,
Love, eternal in its giving grace As she too, with time falls down As we grow old while youth’s stately Presence melts like the snow shown
At its season dissipates, replaced By spring’s colors, warmths, brilliant Colors that shine brighter than diamond’s encased In a vine wrapped in wine on a neck, elegant
Never gaunt but sparkles and haunts Memories as transient as the snowflake That touches, melts, becomes water, a font Of changes just her her stylish break.

The soft white snow is falling Blanketing the world in peaceful Harmony, where jingles soar in joyful Solidarity, blending hopes, dreams strumming
Words of uniting families and enemies, Erasing negativity, murder with the priority Of funding hope, compassion, Humanity As we get together facing dangers in symphonies.

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.

Warriors dressed in sheeps’ clothing Fight, as warriors are wont to fight, Let your voices rise, Soar like a kite, Cross oceans of fright, conquering
Hearts with words of peace, Empathy, compassion for humanity That has fallen astray, accepting fraticide As a way of life, unquestioningly
Some follow like the sheep they are, While others use every medium, From comedy, literature, criticism, Painting, sculpting, all in their way fare
And pair their visions of peace Fighting, unnoticed by many, But those affected by their kindly Actions have only gratitude that’ll fleece
Despair into an abyss where peace Reigns in warrior stance in pride That freedom fighters are framed in place By the courts of the people who don’t hide.

Oh Aphrodite, your white roses Bloom to honor your deity, a groom Of reverence to unwavering gloom That pricked himself and turned them reds.
Yet those peaceful doves bestow Calm innocence facing despair With only thorns as weapons to repair The damage done to the chaos that’ll blow
Up in the faces of those who’ve Forgotten the hymns of gratitude That revel in atonement embued In simple living, where new beginnings have
Been lauded for their vision Of graceful kindness, given, returned, Through the fragile fairness, whose scent attracted Its audience into presiding over confusion
With leadership in radiance, Transparent in its intentions, Gracious in its need for interventions That create connections, reverence

Your poem, “The Syren’s Serenade,” perfectly captures the essence of the theme “Moonlit Tides.” The moonlit setting and the use of tidal metaphors effectively evoke the idea of powerful emotions and movements.
Here’s a breakdown of your poem:

Your poem effectively explores the theme, and the line count is accurate.
Congratulations 👏
Thank you for the honor and your hard work. Mostly, thank you for the critique that demands i raise my writing to a higher level.
The Syren’s Serenade
The syren serenades the waves To a symphony of tunes that raves About the moonlit sky filled with stars Telling stories of outrageous quests
Some for saving loved ones as they traips Into dangerous mountains, never fails To entertain, garner emotional travails Of terror, survival, guilt, regret for losses quails
The strength of faith, Belief in the quests, Yet, they listen to the serenade of nights Filled with wild sounds, crackling fires, that fights The darkness of despair’s hold that blights
Happiness’ divinity that always gladdens The soul in gratitude for the simple gardens That grow In eternal darkness within heaven’s Parade of scintillating beauties that never listens
To the cry of those sailors whose homes Are all they wish for, for there peace comes Within the arms of loved ones whose Love, empathy bind them to the cause,
A cause whose tides rise in the night But caress the shore In the fight For taking a stand with humanity Never resting till peace isn’t wishful thinking.
