Roots in unseen air,
Dreams rise where no soil is bare—
Freedom lights the heart,
Growth chooses its own true way,
Dreams weave threads in silent play.

Monocrostic (Birthday of Cherry Ann G. Guitan)

The rain falls in a cascade,
myriad droplets dancing—
a lilt of rain slithers,
serpentine around my skin—
a whisper of hope in the dusk.
In the garden,
the lunar sky still shines.
Through the nebula’s haze,
a new star is born,
a spark of phosphorus glowing,
guiding a way out of the dirt,
like the spark in my own heart.

Emergence And Layers
Everyone has layers
Unknown layers… are mysteries of your soul
Peeling back layers brings you closer to your core and soul
Revealing your core shines light on your soul
Your core and soul emerges for others to see and feel
You are known…

Focused on the butterfly without wings
A beauty that is yet to be realized
Comforted by the cocoon wrapped in ridicule
For only time will reveal her true purpose
Emergence from stagnation into the great unknown
Whatever remains unseen, will remain unattainable
With a rebellious spirit, she urges others to see her beauty within
An ugly truth hidden under wraps
Blanketed with the burden of those who emerged before her
Into the light she goes, still trapped within the darkness

Emergence
As darkness descends, so too
Shall the light ascend from within.
Oftentimes reminders are not a what, but a who,
That resurrect a strength lost to woes therein.
Tendrils of yearning reach out looking for what belongs
Blocked by our own self doubt.
Destroy the constructs of imprisonment,
Created by a false show of support.
In them exists a key to completion,
Keys to doors not yet opened.
When hope drips from their words like venom,
Remember that is needed for the antidote.

In realms of dusk, where whispers sleep,
A nascent dream, in colours deep.
Green tendrils curl, unseen, unheard,
A restless yearning, wings unstirred.
Beneath the hush, where shadows stray,
A silent storm begins to play.
Dormant fires, with embers bright,
Embrace the dark, ignite the night.
Furious whispers, soft and low,
Unfurl like leaves, begin to grow.
They writhe and dance, unseen, unheard,
A hidden symphony, every word.
Cracking the shell, they push and strive,
Emerald shards, where dreams survive.
Colourless fades, replaced by hue,
Passionate greens, breaking through.
From slumber deep, with verdant grace,
Ideas bloom, find their embrace.
No longer tame, no longer still,
They fill the world, against their will.
With wings unfurled, they paint the dawn,
A vibrant chorus, newly born.
Furious green, a rising tide,
Where dreams take flight, and secrets hide.
So let us dream, in shades unseen,
For whispers sleep, in emerald sheen.
And from the hush, where silence lies,
Colourless dawns paint vibrant skies.

March paints a vibrant collage
of charming gardens in bloom.
Birds arrive in entourage
as Spring emerges from Nature's womb.

Here I am again
2 am
Dishing out the pain
Washing it all out
Breaking up the rust
So that it evaporates
So I can come out again
So I can see the sun again
God, I’ve missed that
Warm on my cheeks
I can feel it burning life
Into my eyes

Once upon a time
In the distant past
There was a country
Built by the sweat of her adopted children
And painstakingly through thick and thin
Became God’s own country
The light of the world
Whenever she spoke, the international community stood still
Enemy countries quaked and trembled
While allies scampered to mollify
The police officer of the world
Once upon a time
His Excellency epitomized leadership in times of global emergency
Today that is no more
Glory has departed from God’s own country
She has become a laughing stock in the comity of nations
A vicious and unscrupulous dictatorship is on the prowl
A clown in the mold of Donquizote is holding sway
Executive mendacity has become the order of the day
Don't cry to me America
Rescue your country from American dream gone awry!

Consciousness is the scintillating blaze
alive on a smoldering log,
a flame emergent from complex interplays
of biology and environment.
Consciousness is greater than the cumulative
elements from which it is produced,
a roving free-form swirling cloud,
a wandering storm over the latest landscape.
Consciousness is always emergent
like an undulating flock of birds.
like the windswept grains of sand dunes.
Consciousness is collectively aware,
a normative quest linked to community survival,
a reaching within for a larger knowing.
Our God may be a force outside time and space,
a consciousness of collective consciousnesses,
a vast power offering the ethics of our survival,
an emergent property of our collective minds.
