Unknown Road Ahead
With no guidance ahead
Eyes aligned with strong mountains
Flows with current
Remain skeptical toward a bleak future
Vacant thoughts veer unknown
Curious rhythms sways forward
Linger mist winding paths
Stumbling blocks engraved havoc
With stubbornness, take a risk
Unknown road ahead
Hulk out with braveness
Rhythm echoes with boldness
Criticism along the way, just ignore it
Follow your own unique peculiar path
Dusk early morning
New beginnings
Stillness take a deep breath
Thriving for greatness
Write your own journey
Always with beautiful blazing coffee

2025 Poetry Marathon Mile 7'
The water inundates the houses and the towns.
Washing all the beauty to an ugliness of brown.
Homes are ruined, with memories loss, by heavy drowning-floods.
Nasty and distasteful times, swallowed, up in muds.
Yet, in all the tragedy, a bond of brotherhood is there.
A loving, sacrificial braveness permeates soaked air.
People stretch to take great risks in saving human lives.
And those within the jaws of death get chances to survive.
The love connection’s present wherever else one goes,
committed faith and caring in a world within the throes.
Heat, fires, droughts and earthquakes won’t destroy “the human bond.”
In all life’s throes of "ugly,” this bond grows ever strong.
When we behold a person save another from death's grasp,
they take upon themselves a risk that no one else can ask.
Such greater love had only ONE to offer up His life.
The beauty of this move to save is divine sacrifice.

Sometimes a turn is a lifetime
You can't live on the past life.
Move on and face the present
Time can't be a value you miss.
It's a long way forward go off road
No frills, no chills but braveness.
The finishing line intended who's
Heart is fix and mind is made up.
Never let go of good intentions,
But cherish on going to improve.
Life is design to move upward
What is there to fear for something.

Bravery
His attribute
Always doing
What others are afraid of
Very determined, not desperate
He's so confident and courageous.
Braveness
He's so fearless
Always ready
To face whatever is ahead
He's a risk taker
He's thy people's hope
Even danger can't stop him.
Braveness
Forward and onward
He's always ready
He's not a coward
Always doing the impossible
By setting new records
None could ever break him
Never settled for anything but greatness.

The silent moon veiled in seamless web darkness.
Bejeweled in radiance starkness,
Youthful valiant Prince Harkness.
Lost in hush briefness.
Charming, brave.
Fierce.
His, a fave.
Diligence, briskness
Each breath struck by its broadness.
Shadow soldiers walk with such braveness.
The silent moon veiled in seamless web darkness.

" I will make my girl strong "
"She will be tigress, not princess "
"No one will stare at her "
"Break that bone, that touched you"
She will shout.
We are failing as a society.
How much of fear we developed in her
That she has sacrifice her gentleness
That she has to be so conscious
The future her daughter lives in.
Don't be blind
Don't be a neglect
Acknowledge that pain
That pain behind Braveness
That tears behind determination
Open your eyes
Otherwise,
One day she will be your worst enemy
Bring that change
Because,
That loss of tenderness
Will bring doom
Everything will end.

Mind over matter
It been a long way coming
Yet am still counting more days
I have crossed my cross
Yet am still crucified on my steps
I keep paying my dues
My head remains focused on nature
Yet life never leave me wanting
I feel the loves I see the hates on my way
I take the blames for my deformities
I share no grudge with my time
I let peace be my shield
Yet am still misunderstood
My kindness taken for weakness
By those I call my own
It been a long way coming
So no disappointment is new in my life anymore
I knew how green the green snakes looks
On my green grass
So I always buckle my shoes an iron soul
Cos I can't cry no more
My days has taught me how to keep strong
My tears has shown me the deep side of braveness
Despite My journey continues with
Mind over matters

Likeable by all,even the sun envy her beauty
Inevitable she is to men
Cheerful,she always is,happy birthday
Emerge victorious she always do

Nebuloused,she always is by her parents
Gorgeous everyday,braveness like a lion
Always equal to elevate the endowed

Dear Todd,
Thank you for saving so many lives in
Washington , DC.
A true American, you!
It’s heroes exactly like you.
Who make me so proud of this land,
As I stand under the red, white and blue!
“Let’s Roll,” you told your team!
As your stormed the cockpit, full of our
enemies, a nightmare, not a dream.
The terrorists had to fight your scheme.
Those devils crashed it into Shanksville.
And thus, saved DC, it stands there still!
We do not understand your strength.
We fear being patriotic at any length.
We are not thankful for your deed.
The country forgot freedom is but a seed.
I pray this country is once again, whole.
Where we, like you, do the right thing,
And with your braveness and courage, say..
“ Let’s Roll!”
With thanks, from my red,white and blue heart!
Panagiota Romios,family and friends

I will show you the Bravest Place
a sweet and (sometimes) bitter place.
A place where "You" are "You" always,
in which you do what your reason dictates
and you say what you feel;
without worrying about the results.
You are never afraid of life or death
or being socially up or down
you know what is relevant and what it´s not
You are always quiet
and you enjoy what you have,
surrounded by people who personally you choose.
You are completely free.
The Bravest Place is as near as "You" and "your own mind".
And the braveness consists in walking the road alone,
without much luggage, and throwing your garbage bag daily.
From no other way, you can get it.
Simply you decide if you want to dwell in this place.

The wounded lion
There was a calamities
In his land
The brutality of bad politics
Keep burning down
His home town
Time keep passing
Yet this circumstances
Never change
He grew up watching
The rain of fire befallen
His community
This all was an influence
To his braveness
Cos I remember he once said
No matter what the eyes see
It can't shed blood but tears
The wounded lion
As time passes
He grew up to a man
He grew up fearless
Cos what more can he see
To be scard
In an genocidal community
What more can he lose
After losing his land
So his mind was made up
To defend his land
Yet he was hurt
So badly hurt
So sad that out there
He was fear
Yet more sadly they he
Was killed by his own people
So on this quest
I understood the words of the old
I see clearly why the old say to me
When you fight for your people
Reserve a hand for the people
From your people who will
Fight you for fighting for them

Aroma I feel is thy blood
Sucking thou until it made a flood
My teeth rooting into thy hypodermis
Fearlessness, braveness is what thou will miss
Because I escaped from Transylvania
To see thou, being in an utopia
I will be in the witching hours soon
When the wolves are howling to the moon
Thou have already got thy omen
Hide or thy house will fill with men
To recite all about your obituary
I will escape again at least to a sanctuary
Now thou may know me from my name
I am there with a high fame
A person with bleeding clothes who cannot be tame
Maybe thou wish to be the same
Yes, I am so vigorous than a salvo flame
Won't fall with your childish blame
Sharpened my teeth from where I came
Your veins and blood is my only aim
Ghost will just visit and go
Beldams will scare you not much more
But me as a vampire is a bedevil
Drinking your blood till my heart fill

Life can be compared to a cunning fox,
We often need to cogitate out of box;
Showcasing our cleverness.
Death can be compared to gloomy songs,
We need to surrender as the time bongs;
Accepting with braveness.
Life and death are non-identical entities,
We need to agnize, there aren't immortalities;
Relenting sheer earnestness.

Take the bull by the horns,
Or the bull will take you.
Stand up and holler,
A house prisoner is not you!
There is no jailer at your front
door.
Though terms tossed about,
makes you think this is truth
to the core!
Want to change things does require
courage and action.
So stop our endless sniveling to gain
satisfaction.
Warriors win wars in battles,
not so easily fought.
Having been in so many,wins
beat losses, so I have been
wonderfully taught.
Today is your day, the trumpet
for braveness calls.
Get outdoors in God's creation,
His world has no guards nor fear
laden walls.

Brave graciously smiles
in sorrow and happiness -
where coward whimpers.
