no Artist, no Poet
Vickie M. Ortiz Vazquez

Play with shapes, colors
Juxtapose
Yet, I am no artist

Inscriptive, descriptive visual symbols come about

Misunderstood at first glace
Driven by a...

Unbeknownst to me if royal
gilded crests comprised
my rusty dust caked coat of arms

Life keeps going to find his purpose
he strolls across verdant plains and trudges up the hills
sometimes dejection follows rejection and distress
darkness engulfs
and something spooky emerges 
looming large to form something horrid…

Snowflakes adorn blurry morn, gently, gently trickling down 
As salted streets are turning brown across this weary town
While tilting trees blow wheeze of breeze in throe of snow
In aerial dance of wintry woe, as tips...

On an early spring morning, butterflies 
 flutter among  dancing leaves,
  While windsongs float within a breeze
 As the monarch flies

 In a field long forgotten, 
 Purple cues in orchid motifs

As spring unfurls its mystical charm 
and masterly sprinkles star-dust
to rouse nature from the cradle of slumber.

Dark shadows are dancing
Around my bed tonight

This night’s been a mixture 
Of what is good and what seems bad

Tonight’s been transcendent 
And I’m alone in my room again.

Memories of the past still remind me so far,
especially those days when I was in college;
my membership in a number of organizations,
a learning experience, filled with laughter.
Each year to celebrate our college fair,
different motifs, booths,...

For centuries of ancient thought
cosmic harmonies have been sought
in the vast eternal motion
of the grand galactic ocean.

To some the twinkling sky inspires
poems about celestial choirs.
But if those serenades occur
it’s just as if they never were,

In the realm where rebels reside,
A vessel of jade, a genre spontaneous,
There lies a poetic rebellion, untried,
A cathartic presence, quite wondrous.

Beneath the moon shattered light,
Where mutated motifs bear flight,
Poetry without lines, a...

In search of poem 
I borrowed a pot from my mind
filled it bit by bit to the brim

If i could retake my life to bake again, 
I’d say exactly where, what and when,

Between frosty cobalt-cliffs, cruise-ship hesitates to pause,
Amidst ice sculptures echoing cheers of spirited applause,
Mesmerizing enthralled sights evincing awe-struck trance,

Buoying on inlets, flaunting aesthetics of sculpted designs,
Dark blue glaciers...
