Poetry for Change
The theme, African Slavery, is close to my heart as I was born in Ghana. The people are friendly and wonderful to be with. My memories of growing up there is that of hot weather, beautiful plant life, forests, wide spaces, language, and culture.

MOTHER ANGEL MINE
Triple acrostic
Mother’s etrnAl love never fails to
Omit her praise iN family gatherings
To initiate learninG, coMpetition, compromise
Heavenly sent in hEather Imbued sent to reveal
Every character not Less, Never less, but
Remember her sunny smile Eternally loving in its simplicity.

2 certificates, 1 of Excellence, and 1 Gold, both honoring women for March is Women’s Month. In some countries, March 21, spring, is Mother’s Day as well, which elevates the celebration. My only regret is that, as we celebrate, other mothers around the world are being raped, tortured, and murdered horrifically.

Labyrinth
Life is full of predicaments,
Labyrinths are the only road available.
Line your car with gas that spars
Long with the deadly turns that are viable.
Longing for straightforward success,
Laying out your failures that press.
Limp around giving a guess
Looking forward to new life that’s not less.
Legends are complex and teach
Loyalty and friendship, but suppress
Liars that generate a great reach
Leaving them as villains that squeals.
Light up your life with loyals
Living through difficulties and prove
Logical in their enterprises
Letting the faithful mind make a succesful move.

Defining ‘Me’
As a teen, are you aware?
Aware of your strengths,
Aware of your weaknesses,
Aware of your beliefs,
Aware of your needs?
You may have a vague
Notion about all the above,
But can’t define any with clarity.
Make mistakes,
Learn from them, lessons,
Let’s live life with its joys
That reflect your awareness
Of successes and failures.
Your patience, reactions,
And actions define your emotions,
Those help to highlight your characters’
Flexibility when faced with adversities.
Accepting that failure isn’t an end
But a beginning; as it’s where you
Find out about yourself, and become aware.

Acrostic poems are a form I enjoy using, as it’s challenging to use the word/ title as the start of each line. My aim when using this form is to have the theme of the poem reflect the word/ title. Plus, when the rules require a limited number of lines, it’s simpler to use the Acrostic form.
