Double Gold Certificate for my poem,  Through the Peephole

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Through the Peephole

Her vision narrows through the arid hole
Where she sees a man atop a hill, a mole
Who helped in destruction of the earth
Turning it into a desolate world of sand whose breath

Is filled with thistly particles that engorge
The throat with thorns that need a purge
Or turn health into illness,
Living alone atop that hill in a listless

Desert reigning over despair
Knowing that he was an active pair
In the deterioration from beauty
To sandy winds that topple civility

Into dunes where prosperity
Is only for the elite, a conspiracy
That turned the world into unquestionable
Infertility, where hunger is undoubtable.

Through the peephole of her vision,
Her tears flow quenching the parched station
He stands on with the life giver, water
Raining down in a vision of fertile harvester.

Platinum Certificate for my poem, Dominance of Inner Self

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Dominance of Inner Self

Oh ye of self-importance
Have you woken from your delusion?
Look beyond your nose at the stance
Of those whose prancing is a vision

Of artifice, arbitrary,  and filled
With self-adulation, when one needs
To look within, the core of what’s valued,
As strengths while weaknesses need  to be gutted,

As nourishment needs to reach its potential
With the potence that will change
One’s failings into successes partial
To the susurations of peers, who range

In perceptions and influence,
Impose their views without consideration
Of whether their eminence
Will disrupt your self-worth, contrition

As guilt’s oppressive weight
Demeans your self-acceptance
Entailing despair is at the height
Of its influence if not for the persistence

Of your self-belief in your
Power to overcome obstacles
Thrown at you through life’s poor
Journey of building the inner self.

Gold Certificate for my poem,  Writing Visions

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Writing Visions

In the depth of autumn’s fury,
The day has a ritulant glow
Encasing her gold tresses in a halo
Of light As she holds her pen, poised, to carry

Her vision of a world filled with cheer,
Shimmering over the river’s shore,
Accepting her peaceful humanity where fear
Is a forgotten feeling that seeps through pore

Flooding away its trauma, building
New communities, integrated with purpose
As she watches addictions evaporating
And discipline, righteousness are the cause

Held dear to all. She keeps her pen
Over the paper, wishing, wishing
That life as she knows it dissipates into a hen-
House, encasing all the negativity and fishing

Out the best of optimism’s cry
That resonates into souls needing to fight.

Award of Appreciation for my acrostic poem,  PHILOSOPHY

Thank you for the honor and your hard work

Acrostic
PHILOSOPHY

Pile the perspectives of centuries of philosophies
Humming different tunes in harmony
Interpreting the meaning of life differently
Losing leverage over life when it reduces,
Oversimplifies realities into ideology that’s
Secularly scientific without delving deeper
Omitting hidden truths for
Pushing their story, ideology that
Hinders understanding the larger vision
Yet to be seen when your blinders reveal.

Award of Excellence for my poem, Recalcitrant Vision

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Recalcitrant Vision

All art is a view of life perceived
Through the eye of the artist who
Interprets his emotional response through
The media of art he drew and traveled
Into his world of choice where illusion,
Pink tinted glasses, or blackened ones, are a division

Only the artist can create within the piece
Of art that he sees in his mind’s eye,
Reproduces it, and there’s always the fly
That’s never as exact as the vision, a place

Where flexibility,  imagination run rampant
But can be recreated perfectly,
So the artist’s interpretation of life’s study
Is always in perfidy that’s recalcitrant.

Diploma Certificate for my poem, Faerie Princess

Thank you,  administrators,  for the accolade and your hard work.

Faery Princess

The golden headed faery adorned
By her ringlets and curls, Winged
Transparent wings on her back held
Her aloft in her gauzy white gowned

Embroidered with multicolored flowers,
From hem to chest, she glows With powers
That flow through hands holding spheres
Shimmering with imagination’s beautifiers

That blaze, like lightning, into the soul
Filling them with an innate clamor for the hole
Of creativity, ideation to bloom full
Of inspiration, hard work that will dole

Out satisfaction in work done
To achieve their visions that none
Can attain without discipline,
Hard work, faith, and a will of stone.

Certificate of Excellence for my poem: Rebuild Her Vision

Rebuild Her Vision

In her mind’s eye, she sees the new,
New city built on the ashes, rubble,
Rubble and destruction of war,
War that took away family,
Family whose lives were taken,
Taken violently in bombs,
Bombs whose yield was astounding,
Astounding even objective observers,
Observers of world’s humanity,
Humanity whose humane compassion,
Compassion never fails to rise,
Rise in younger generations,
Generations whose conscience,
Conscience in battling against oppression,
Oppression of the Indigenous,
Indigenous populations for material,
Material resources that rebuild,
Rebuild what was destroyed,
Destroyed cities become futuristic,
Futuristic, symmetric, organized,
Organized to represent power,
Power of Faith’s survival,
Survival among death’s door,
Door that opens into a brilliant,
Brilliant future, where equality,
Equality, wisdom, harmony,
Harmony of races, understanding,
Understanding that unity,
Unity is forged in steel,
Steel that has a feel,
Feel for needs of families,
Families whose support, love,
Love and ambition is a construct,
Construct of a world of utopian,
Utopian haven on earth’s astounding,
Astounding beauty that enraptures,
Enraptures our imagination into,
Into creating our heavenly vision.

Accolade for my poem: Life Captured

Thank you,  administrators,  for the accolade and your hard work.

The poem, Life Captured,  is part of my poetry book,  Perfectly Flawed poetry for change.

Life Captured

Looking at life through the aperture of a lens
Narrows your vision to only what it presents,
Everything else is eliminated, erased.
What happens to that backdrop that disappeared?
Is your memory faulty, that it too evaporates it?
Or is your memory vibrant enough to retain it?
Or would you prefer to eradicate it?

There are times in life where having a limited
View of an event can alter its meaning, and
Dissipate its importance into nothing,
For its effect on you, casual at best. Reliving
Them is unremarkable, dispensable, and dreary
Creating unnecessary despair when life is for living.

Other times when a complete view is compulsory
For understanding and acting favorably.
At such times,  no minute detail is unnecessary,
For they all create a holistic picture of the unsavory
Events that play out in movie format,  brilliantly
Vivid in its details, sounds, smells, and actionably.

The scenes are relentless in their motions
As they unveil their worthiness to us
As the aperture of life is just a version
Of all that’s around us, filming, storing,
Even deleting or omitting the undeserving,
Challenging the lies or liars, stating only verity, flying!!!!

National Poetry Day

Acrostic

Never needed a day to celebrate
A writing form such as poetry,
Terrifying in its simplicity,
Impossibly imaginative in its creation
On an auspicious day when fall
Never ends, but is reborn in
All its glorious colors of redish hues
Later, later, leaving you dressed in a crown.

Pottery bowls made of words are filled
Onto their rim, overflowing with
Eternal, laughter, life, love, all
Travel on a journey of discovery
Rendered bearable, only with poetry.
Yet, many have set it aside and forgotten

Devastation driven through ignorance
And approval of the prolific devastation
Your moral compass has fallen to.

In celebration of a day for the enjoyment of words that are flexible enough to describe your unbound imagination.

Author of Perfectly Flawed, poetry for change.
