Award for Active Participation in Lead Pen

Thank you for the honor and your hard work. I’m always honored when I receive this award, as it feels like cheating when I enjoy the work so much. Reading and writing poetry is not a hobby, it is a must for my sanity. It helps me connect to authors, their worries, dreams, perception of esthetics,  and the medium they use to express them. To all the poets, writers out there, don’t give up after a few rejections, take up the challenge to improve on your writing techniques and take pride in all you do.

My poetry book,  Perfectly Flawed poetry for change,  is available on all eplatforms including Amazon.  It was on the finalist list for the Canadian Book Club Awards 2023.

Thank you, Rim Rizk, for pilots the magazine and getting us together.  Your hard work is highly appreciated.

Free Speech

Black cap and gown covering her
Blue eyes and Golden spun hair,
While the 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 …

Breathe Through The Blood

I’m drowning in blood,
Blood of families blown asunder,
Asunder. Limbs and heads loll,
Loll, broken, decapitated, bloody,
Bloody from arteries leaking,
Leaking from wounds, impossible,
Impossible to tend, as hospitals,
Hospitals have lost the ability to heal,
Heal thousands of extreme wounds, …

People who write!

I know, I know, we look a fright,

But people who write

Need creativity in flight

Even if it means looking a fright!

Appreciation

I feel the need to share my appreciation to all those who have read, read, and will soon read my writing. Your support has given such inspiration and wonder. I hope that those who write, I encourage and challenge to keep expressing yourself; for those who are visual artists, painters, photographers … don’t stop, for those who just wish to impart their knowledge and experience, do so with pride! It doesn’t matter what you do really, as long as you enjoy it and know that others, of like minds, will do the same!

Keep at it!!!!
