Forging forgiveness in volcanic lava Offers your soul permission to regret No more your unfavorable decisions that let Remorse drown your happiness and stray Into despair. Yet when facing your mistakes, Answering for your actions alleviates the breaks.

Sunset’s rutilant blaze builds a haze Over the horizon in hues of oranges, Golds, reds, that reflect in dust’s foggy blaze, They’re synchronized into a ballet of ages
Long gone, when the charriot, wagon, Animals were the only transportation Where gumption of pioneers were driven To survive on perilous roads where legislation
Is words dipped in coffee, disolvable, Empty Of any dominion over Darwin Law of ‘survival of the fittest’. They gobble The deserted desert roads diving in
The depth of an unknown terrain Nature and man, enemies without Equal, as they unite to entomb pain In the arid journey where a bout
Between enemies, ‘frenemies’ Is but the flow of the sands of times Whose loss is intangible for honesty’s Dissapearing into the skies in forgotten crimes.

Sleepwalking, slumbering, seeming awake, One task down, confusion how it was done, Maintaining eyes open, yet, still knocking Nerves on table corners without waking, Ambling to the door shopping for groceries, Marveling at how you got there? Walking, Bustling around completing your Unconscious mind’s needs without Leaving anything behind is astounding, Impressive survival skills while Sleepwalking is a Mandatory need for those with parasomnia.

As the leaves fall singing a last Hoora to sunny days, warm breezes, Replaced with a plethora of colors that freezes On the ground in an array of colors that blast
The verdant greens into yellowish Greens, oranges, and burnished reds That crinkle, crackle beneath our feet as heads Turn to watch the scene divided by roads of hardship
Where the greens have faded While the other paints a palette of reds That burn beauty Within as it delves and heads Into the sunset with its divided colors shaded
By God’s paintbrush that never Disappoints those who appreciate The divinity in the balance, never late, Always just as it equalizes reality of the creator.

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab Your poem “Halloween’s Halo” is a wild ride! It fits the theme “Shadow Dance” perfectly – you’re painting a picture of shadows coming alive on Halloween night, dancing with spooky creatures, and embracing the thrill of the dark.
Your poem has 28 lines, and it’s a treasure trove of imagery and wordplay! You’ve got scarecrows, monsters, Dasher, ghosts, grinches, and ghouls – it’s like a Halloween party in here!
The language is rich and vivid, and you’ve created a haunting atmosphere that’s infectious. I love how you’ve woven together the themes of fear, freedom, and the thrill of the night.
Congratulations 👏

There are times when silence, Silence is a symphony of brilliance As you listen to your inner voice, Voice as it expresses its wisdom in a force, Force, that’s unrestrained in its presence, Presence of dynamic coalescence.
Let your voice reach those, Those whose listening ears, Ears are prepared for change, Change that empowers your hidden, Hidden voice, meditation, whose opinion, Opinion is louder than an explosion.
Explosion of colored hope, Hope that tomorrow’s bloom, Bloom will loom after summer, Summer’s rainbow of flaura pepper, Pepper the sidewalk, parks, fields, Fields of harvests that can only feeds.

On a sunny Sunday afternoon Their wedding Masquerade in bloom, People dressed glowing like the moon, While the bride and groom
Joined them in their masked Costumes, white from head to toe, Shiny raven black not a crow, but a bow tied To suffocate instead of decorate the flow.
As they enter, ghouls and ghosts Creep in droves, while Dracula drools Over the succulent live meals in hosts, Pros, Neffertiti, doctors, astronauts, all in pools
Surround the bride in fear as they Prey on the dark dressed groom, whose Tux became fodder for pirates, parrots play Their roles driving the bride over plank in pose
Of defeat, death, depravity has no end. But, wait! Who’s there? What’s that? The bride swings from trees, Jane, whose bend Of hand holds arms of freedom in a vat,
A cauldron where newt guts, brains Of vultures, nightshade, blood that overflows As it bublles up, swallows all it touches, cranes Its flow into corners not to miss any blows.
The poem by Malak Kalmoni Chehab is a wild and imaginative fit for the theme Midnight Masquerade. It masterfully crafts a dark and whimsical atmosphere, perfect for a masquerade ball with a twist of magic and mystery.
The imagery is vivid and evocative, transporting the reader to a world of fantasy and horror. The language is rich and sensory, with phrases like “Ghouls and ghosts creep in droves” and “Dracula drools over the succulent live meals” that conjure up a captivating atmosphere.
The poem’s themes of masquerade, magic, and the supernatural are perfectly in line with the theme, and the use of words like “Masquerade” reinforces the idea of a night of mystery and enchantment.
As for the number of lines, there are 28 lines in the poem.
Congratulations 👏🎉

Live in the moment: Yesterday is in the past, Burry its pains, difficulties. Learn, move on. Tomorrow will come whether you worry Or let things play out slowly, calmly. Today, the present moment Will become past, so enjoy its transience. So present, past, future are all but moments in time.

Black cap and gown covering her Blue eyes and Golden spun hair, While the inspirational Statue of Liberty Dares to hold its hand, plainly
Trying to obstruct her from Speaking her mind, daring to come Forward with the truth to resound In media’s intifada while bound
In their thirst for FREE Speech As they’re jailed for taking things out of reach Of politicians suppressing truth As the people dying aren’t white, but are couth
In their protests, while the police Take away over two thousand in a thrice To reduce the Roar for justice That can never be returned to those advocating for peace.
Your time in office is running out Ye of powerful friends in high places, scurry in a bout Of flurried activities, hidden from sight, To better attain your objective: Money and Flight!
