I Am Proud

I am proud I'm not a Trump supporter.
And minding my own business, not like a reporter.
I've always been proud and I'm not sure why.
Sometimes I'm not sure why I even try.

I am proud that I'm Red* and Evie's kid.
I'm proud and love my grand niece Sid.
I am not comfortable saying these things aloud.
I know I have an ego, it's not that I'm proud.

I am not crazy about this task.
What were you thinking that you would ask?
I guess I don't have much to be proud of.
All that I've ever wanted is to rise above.

So to say what I am proud of.
Maybe it's my desire to truly love.
And to give everyone a fair shake.
I guess I am proud for Pete's sake.

*Red is my Dad's nickname, not red as in political. And what side of the aisle I am on is not relevant to this poem. <3 :)

Premium Member Silent Lies

Silent Lies 

Silent lies
Silent tries
Silent deceptions upon the meek
Blaming Yahudi or any others of different speak
Whoever doesn’t subscribe to propaganda’s blubber

The gardens of Babylon had both fools and gardeners

False accusations
False assumptions
Defiling peace, a sad interruption
Deception is the tool of the propaganda’s fool
Silent lies, yet on and on do they try

The gardens of Babylon had both fools and gardeners

Hiding behind his many monikers and dark lit screens
Many of us are crying cause one of us is lying
Hate wrapped in well wishes
Love wrapped in ancient vendettas
Deception hiding in his own confessions

The gardens of Babylon had both fools and gardeners

While the sickness spreads upon her breast
Silent ones, wandering along the poetic path
Seeking brides with beauty to accept both cane and wrath
Deception and lies all dancing in the rain
Once bitten, most lovers know never to take that train

The gardens of Babylon had both fools and gardeners

Never praise the fool
Never kill the gardener
The ancients lost their wisdom
Repeat not the tribulations of the Iraq

The gardens of Babylon had both fools and gardeners

Silent lies, truth cries
Silent ghosts, phantoms dance
Deception mixed in romance
Fools mange the mirage of silent lies

The gardens of Babylon had both fools and gardeners

Premium Member Pink Is Having a Moment

Pink Is Having a Moment

with
the new pink cricket ball,
pink soccer boots,
Yes, it's True Folks! It's a fair game!
But, 
no World Cup team
is clad in pink—
they think it's too tame,
or maybe too bold,
a distraction
which amounts to the same.

Pink in fashion
is always arriving fresh,
and returning.

In nature, though,
it's as old as a daybreak
and twice as enduring.

Pink panthers,
pink flamingos,
pink slips, pink gin,
pink carnations in a lapel,

powdered pink wigs on
pink elephants after midnight,
drifting through Versailles
in clouds of rose-red perfume mist;

gate-crashing catwalks,
then riding away
in the Shock of the New—
A Shiny Pink Cadillac.

But don't expect
the pink moment,
to last very long.
It'll be left
as a glinting hint 
subdued in the background.

Blushing in sunsets,
hiding in seashells,
lounging lazily
inside ripe watermelons,

lingering in galloping galahs,
coral reef fish fins flaps,
and the inner demure curves
of a conch shell.

It will fade from fashion
around the end of July.

Pink's moment will pass.
Yet, somewhere, out there—
A rose will ignore them,
a flamingo will stand on one leg,
and the evening sky
will blush 
without permission!
and 
the world  will discover
Pink isss It!
all over again.

Munir Niazi Translations

The Condition of My Heart
by Munir Niazi
loose translation by Michael R. Burch
 
There's no need for anyone else to get excited:
The condition of my heart is not the condition of hers.
But were we to receive any sort of good news, Munir,
How spectacular compared to earth's mundane sunsets!

***
 
Mystery
by Munir Niazi
loose translation by Michael R. Burch
 
She was a mystery:
Her lips were parched ...
but her eyes were two unfathomable oceans.

***
 
I continued delaying ...
by Munir Niazi
loose translation by Michael R. Burch
 
I continued delaying ...
the words I should speak
the promises I should keep
the one I should dial
despite her cruel denial
 
I continued delaying ...
the shoulder I must offer
the hand I must proffer
the untraveled lanes
we may not see again
 
I continued delaying ...
long strolls through the seasons
for my own selfish reasons
the remembrances of lovers
to erase thoughts of others
 
I continued delaying ...
to save someone dear
from eternities unclear
to make her aware
of our reality here
 
I continued delaying ...

Peace
By Michelle Morris

Peace is possible
It isn't just a symbol

We need to embrace it
Within ourselves
Between each other
Between our nations

Whatever language we choose
Let us choose peace

Arabic (Chad, Sudan, Syria)
Salam

Bengali (Bangladesh)
??????
Santi

Chinese 
Hépíng
??

English (South Sudan)
Peace 

French (Burkina Faso, Burundi, Central African Republic, Chad, France, Republic of Congo)

Afrikaans (South Africa)
Vrede

Spanish

Ukrainian

Xhosa (South Africa)

If I keep saying it in as many languages as possible, maybe it will reverberate through the Universe and people might embrace inner peace, and start to treat each other better

Peace be with you and in you
Peace be with me and in me
Peace be with us and in us

Peace is possible 
Let's embrace it fully and globally 
Let us embrace it together
Now

Blessings, love and light

BeThere

For their roar is never heard
Be their roar , be their pride , be their light , be their guide in every stride

Be their strength , be their wavelength
Be their for them to vent , 
A safe space to their hearts intent 
Be their frequency , be their rhyme
Be their mime and chime in time

Be their harmony embracing and racing through their garden of opportunity 

Be their umbrella , be their shadow, 
to their open sky  they seek the  opportunity window, 

Be their guardrails , yet their freedom too
The world feels safe when held by you

Be there to care for they matter
Be there , be there, just be there when their dreams shatter
When broken pieces is all that they see be their vision of art their ecstasy 

Be there for their ups and downs as they see saw in mere life’s playground 

Be there when you can for time is dear  life disappears before it appears
