Premium Member - Confidence -

                - Know your value. Confidence breeds success. Act like
                      the person you want to become, and people will 
                 start seeing you as that person. -  Quote: Mark M. Ford


                              Don't fear your inner confidence
                            Navigate through each fleeting day
                           with determination and perseverance

                                        Create the ability
                             notice how the confidence unfolds
                         Mental stimulation, prioritizing self-care

                                    A fortress built of straw
                                provides no impetus for action
                            everything will be gone with the wind

                When you are ready and have built unshakable confidence
                            Your perspective may be changed but,
                        the essence of who we are remains the same

                       Familiarize yourself with the low ant paths
                                Hold your feet on the ground
                            Achievements, decisions and goals

                         Confidence lifts the soul to soar upright
                         embrace your success in the face of life
                                 dare to show care and love

                           One day you might be strong enough
                             unfold your all-encompassing wings
                                an objective which can be caught


One Little Butterfly -Part 2-

Coming down my way, I let the leaf fall onto my palm 
As little tingles of warmth console my shivers
It lands as the others fall to the ground 
Some pass me—others sink around in submission
My fingers gently wrap around the fragile thing
Afraid that the wind may pull it away

As I familiarize with the touch and gaze upon its design,
I begin to realize this treasure is not a leaf at all
Though it had befriended the tree far before the ghosts of seasoned bliss
And now the tree yearns for her again—an obliging host
Yearning for that one little butterfly wing, falling with the leaves
Caught in the warmth of life that soon will freeze
For they had to move on…it was their choice to leave
Just as the butterflies migrated toward the warmth
My friends—my strangers…have gone away

One little butterfly stayed behind
Left alone to face the brink of autumn’s glare
Sorely soothed by the embracing despair
Always different than the rest—beyond compare
One little butterfly stayed on the tree
And one wing fell on me
Though cold, alone, and dead
Together be

Premium Member Words To Live By

Weave a glittering tapestry
Of wisdom for youths of the world, so they
Resoundingly reject peer pressures that often
Drain their innocence. Words of wisdom would
Spare them the sword of damocles 

Teach them as many life lessons as possible
Open their minds to new possibilities

"Live rightly, think rightly and act rightly," 
Is Mahatma Gandhi's philosophy. Familiarize these words of
Value to impressionable minds. Instill in them virtues like 
Empathy, tolerance, patience and fairness

Bless them with the belief that the seed of dreams
Yield fresh fruits for years to come.

The Typewriter

Taking a course of being a secretary
Typewriter on the table is ready

My hands are aching to hit the letters
Speed depends on the movements of my fingers

A basic instrument of communication
You have to familiarize with the hands-on 

Busy hands needs to type as many words
It’s like having a competition with swords

Manual way of making documents for you and for me
You have to be sure to type the words and letters correctly 

Bond papers, liquid erasers, and a heavy type writer
The complete set to accomplish the mission as typist

Typewriters will be remembered as the years go by
Modern computers will not beat its quality even if I buy

Scorpio

I can be a leader.
I do not need to follow the actions and behaviors of others.
What harm?
Oh, but what gain?
I am fierce
With a lot to say,
A lot of love
And a lot of passion.
Simple pleasures
And little disappointments.
Just be who I want to be,
Not what others see;
What others want me to be.
I am more than a perception.
I am loud and proud,
Bold and fearless.
I have a courage
And strength that is limitless.
I am learning to vocalize my boundaries;
Free from guilt and shame.
There is an ocean inside me that you cannot tame.
My waters run deep
You merely tread the surface.
I know who I am
And I will take up space.
Breathless and discouraged,
I will still run the race.
Dip your feet in the edge of my waters
And let me wash over you.
Familiarize yourself with the polarity
Of my sensations.
I will not let you down.
I will not let you drown
If you meet me without malice.
Dare.
Do.


Repercussions of circumstances

#Reppercusions_of_circumstances
Right before our minds tries to capture reality,  the very moment, we start to familiarize our warmth, instances of ones soul's comfort, the time when everything begins to form shape and when all its out and about,  a slap to ones dream, an explosion to ones reality

a time when what matters and real,  becomes visible, hopes and dreams which only existed in ones imaginary world, now looming into distress of failure, chances denied turn into, by wishes which this world can't ever grant access into. Seconds that makes all the right senses and reality but mattering no more, for they have dued, with moments melted by memories denied access into by permanent absences

a little, that remain wishes, nights we cry ourselves to sleep, days that rushed before we can say enough. Pillars and leaning shoulders, our lives depended on, which our breaths and presence derived strength from, but this universe has robbed us them, leaving holes and dunes to our whole being, reppercusions, for the scars and crimes made to our souls and peace, tormented nights and agony and circumstances of drained hopes and drowned happiness, broken arrows of better tomorrow, tales and songs every child dreamed of which life killed right before, the world made sense

7 Rings

Sages and brethren
gather and share
and slowly souls
are bared;
their tempered voices
and quiet eyes
reserved of judgment
with passing smiles,
moments blend
in current trends
opinions wide
and reflections deep;
the concepts
and irregularities
once murky
now clear.
they prioritize
and familiarize
that staunch resolution
of generation net
will remunerate
and illuminate
through the checkpoints
and formal reviews
through the purple curtains
and open stage
nothing tainted
or bitter
left for taste
because its they
who’ll plant the seed,
the captains of commerce
healers and jugglers
the coaches and councilors
negotiators and compromisers
the kings and queens
hustlers and hellcats
(who've all found their way!)
let us tip our hats
and salute them.

Abandoned friend

#My_abandoned_friend 
 Focused so much on my grind and neglected you, tossed you so far, less I knew how wild and unsafe this universe was, today i saw my contributed evil deeds, evident all over your face, hardly recognized the once illuminative smile, could hear the fading and in crawling stage the laughter you made,

realised how wrong have I totally been, for looking only where I was headed, forgot that I once vowed to friend you  come what may, so much has this life snatched from you, so much i ran out of objects around me when counting , so shameful i call myself a friend, your friend in particular, 

saying this with shame ,today I met a friend, a once good one for that matter, after so much many years, realised how savaging indeed this life was capable, so lil of what was,

realised how much life has taken its toll over you, so much only so little in your presence I could familiarize, realised how irreparable, time and space has taken away from our friendship, so bad my peace still restless, 

so much has this time taken from you, so little I could still say we once had, so fearful and scary I wish had never left our friendship station, for all was just picture perfect, now the future painting we jointly painted, has just few pieces of what was, so bad one would deny if that was what was,

how bad I blame myself for leaving so early, I mean chasing my dreams by self, how selfish was it of me, today I saw the scattered pieces of that friendship, broken so bad one would barley noticed its once existence, realised how failed I have failed you, how selfish was I in my hustle, so selfish even in my prayers, though I call myself a believer

like a mirror, she carried so much broken pieces in her smile and there lied my failure, I have failed not only her but our friendship, like Judas Escariot, my deception weigh so heavy upon my conscience, my abandoned friend

The Last Supper Upper Supper

Rumination.
Too long an elongation
Oblivion
Too easy a high five to see in freedom, in scope of Pentagon
The eternal fire, chest of drawer and homeland security
Almost a climax toward  Bermuda triangle
A selfless supplication in the third act
Without writing how will you find meaning too , through abstraction?
I am an assonance
To odd a pain
In revision of torn pages
To forecast pills of nine
Will there be any benign?
To tell a tale , to cast a forecast 
Gaze, maze, in audacity of courage
I love you, your heart beats in mine
I rub you, I feel your overcoat, the woolen layers
And I tell you, softly
Upper supper, look me in to the eyes
Familiarize a face
You have to give a speech
For a lost butterfly
On the twenty first floor 
Of the tower.
“Did you say tailgating?” The question came
I replied, to do rely, almost a reply’s try,
A point of no return, I love you in supreme time
But how will I describe my rumination?
In odds of your twenty years
And ninth of mine?

Premium Member Let Your Imagination Take Flight

Dear budding poet, 

Modern poetry is an evolutionary process. A poet never really stops growing and learning. Even the most seasoned of poets can discover and master new forms. I wish you a happy journey to poetic creativity. My advice is to read poetry voraciously and listen to poetry recitals. 

Read poems by famous poets. Join a group such as www.Poetrysoup.com and study definitions of poetry forms. You'll soon familiarize yourself with many brilliant Poetrysoup poets, poetry terminology, rhyme schemes, meters, etc. You'll also see examples of all the poetry forms.

Poetry is a malleable art form. It can be formless, like water. Like wet clay, you can mold or shape a poem however you desire. The sky is the limit in terms of your subject matter. I strongly suggest going out in nature for a wealth of inspiration. Try writing a poem outdoors. 

Poetic inspiration is likely to materialize as you're much more alert and aware of your surroundings. Enter Poetrysoup poetry contests, which will further fuel your inspiration to write more. Positive, encouraging feedback from supportive poets also keeps your creative juices flowing. 

Always carry a pen and notebook with you and jot down the moments or things that captivate you. Ideas. Epiphanies. Funny moments. Happy moments. Sad moments. It's an abundance of riches in terms of themes to broach. You can pen a poem about anything. Use your power of observation and let your imagination take flight.

To use lines from my poem, "What Poetry Means To Me," "Poetry is my catharsis, passion, escape. The golden spoon which I use to stir souls. Poetry means sharing my gift of creativity to inspire, purge, reveal, to weave a tapestry of deeply felt emotions." 

My favorite themes are nature, emotions, animals, and astronomy. My favorite reference sources are as follows: Poetrysoup, Merriam-Webster's Dictionary, Rhymezome, HowManySyllables, and WordHippo.
