There once was a man,
And he thought his skin was too white,
He got a little tan,
Started eating rice
But he started thinking,
What's wrong with myself?
Was god wrong making my skin?
Am I rejected, or doing this made me win?
Who you were, you still are,
It's the inside that matters,
You don't have to argue for other's sake!
No one is perfect,
Don't think that you are
If you think that your health doesn't matter,
And people don't tell you the truth,
What is science, is science,
Don't take the other route!
No one is perfect,
And no one can truly be,
If how you look matters to you,
There is just something that you don't see.
No one is perfect,
But you are perfect in the way you are,
Health, a real truth,
No one tells lies, and there are no aliens on mars!
There are no secrets,
And in this era you are not 'oppressed',
Achieve something or do something that is true!
You are perfect in the way you are,
So stop being distressed!
Praise the breadth of the spiritual gifts with limitless
Love that manifests to empower each other.
Uplifting unity, reminding us of God’s ultimate gift of love through Jesus’s
Mercy-ripened limbs, and sharing emotional compassion.
Profound state of self-acceptance in tranquility and harmony.
A spiritual love; learning to listen to a true loving bond
To strengthen inner peace, a humble bond to the Father.
Under His protection, when we unlock the door for Him,
We enter a meadow of scattering light of dawn, tall grass
And blooming flowers, and the serene beauty of twilight eventide hues.
John Keats - I continue to adore Keats's lush, sensuous language and his odes to beauty, nature, and love, which can deeply resonate with some of my own poetry's yearning and delicacy.
Emily Dickinson - Dickinson's quiet intensity and exploration of death, eternity, and inner life has appeal to my introspective side.
She and I share a fierce independence of spirit and a love for solitude.
Edna St. Vincent Millay - I admire Millay's bold, feminist voice and her exploration of desire and independence.
Millay's mastery of sonnet form and ability to capture the fleetingness of passion has after multiple readings come to resonate with me.
Pablo Neruda - Known for his passionate love poems and deep connection to nature, Neruda has come to enchant me with his visceral imagery and emotional honesty.
His poems about the natural world might feel like kin ship to me, my own.
Mary Oliver - I feel at home in Oliver's reflective, nature-based poetry.
I have come to love Oliver's reverence for the world, finding in it a continuation of her own themes of beauty and spiritual communion with nature.
Sylvia Plath - I would definitely appreciate Plath's courage in delving into the complexities of self, identity, and mental struggle.
While my tone of poetry has now through evolution grown more gentler, I feel a kinship in Plath's exploration of one's inner life.
Rainer Maria Rilke - With his mystical tone and contemplative exploration of love and solitude, Rilke would be a poet that I have come to admire.
His 'Letters to a Young Poet' would also resonate as advice one might give to aspiring poets.
Louise Glück - Known for her somber tone and introspective lyricism, Glück would fascinate me with her exploration of loss, longing, and family dynamics.
I admire Glück's precision and haunting imagery.
Langston Hughes - I would appreciate Hughes's musicality, social consciousness, and exploration of personal and collective identity.
His poems on love, hope, and perseverance would feel to me like hymns of survival and resilience.
Ada Limón - I would likely be drawn to Limón's modern voice and her intimate, conversational style that draws readers into an emotional landscape. Limón's poems of self-acceptance, connection to nature, and resilience would feel like a refreshing evolution of the lyricism that I have come to cherish.
Love begins with self-embrace, a gentle touch of the heart,
A whispered affirmation, that sets us apart.
Nobody can love you, like you love yourself,
For self-love is the foundation, on which all else is built and wealth.
You're unique, a masterpiece, crafted with divine care,
A one-of-a-kind creation, beyond compare.
Don't let anyone diminish, your light or your shine,
For you're a precious gem, that reflects the divine.
It's not about what you have, but who you are,
The essence of your being, the spark that you are.
God designed you, with purpose and with might,
To shine your light, and live your truth, in all your sight.
Accept yourself, with all your strengths and flaws,
And value your worth, despite the world's applause.
Don't let anyone pull you down, or drain your energy,
For you're a masterpiece, worthy of love and dignity.
Have a good relationship, with the one you're with every day,
Take care of yourself, in every way.
There's no one who can be you, but you,
So live your life, with intention, and purpose anew.
It takes one person, to change your life's course,
And that person is you, with your inner strength and force.
Don't live to please others, live to please your soul,
And let your life be guided, by a higher goal.
You only live once, and that once can't be wasted,
So live it well, with passion, and purpose created.
True beauty comes from within, it's a light that shines,
A reflection of self-love, that touches hearts and minds.
I lost so many days,
Trudging through that battle field,
Struggling under the weight of armour,
Tired of putting up my shield.
Precious time lost stuck in turmoil,
Always at war with my mind,
Looking for a way to take control,
Seeking the peace I craved to find.
I chose to take the torch,
Relighting the spark burnt out inside,
Fuelling a brand new way of life,
One that I now live with pride.
No longer a hostage of my history,
Taking the pen to write my own story,
As I live, present and in the moment,
For the first time ever, I feel free.
I'm still a work in progress,
Piece by piece, slowly becoming whole,
But self acceptance now fills my heart,
A warming glow now lines my soul.
For years I thought I was lost,
Convinced that's how it'd always be,
Until I became confident in my authenticity,
Realising all along, that, home is here in me.
My muse me muse you amuse me.
My muse me muse we amuse unity.
My muse me muse we sometimes amuse abuse.
My muse me muse we amuse our children with charity.
My muse me muse we amuse dying as an art of living.
My muse me muse we amuse gratitude.
My muse me muse we amuse reading.
My muse me muse we amuse learning from each other.
My muse me muse me amuse peers as friends.
My muse me muse we amuse pure joy in each.
My muse you muse we amuse inspiration from everyone.
Me muse me muse we amuse self acceptance as our normality.
You amuse me I muse, we amuse self-appreciation and love for me and you all.

This is for anyone who was ever rejected by their family. It is a deep wound and it's challenging to overcome. But healing is a process and you are loved and cared for by God and His Angels.
I have a family member who was born gay in the 1950s, when it was even more challenging than it is today. He was beaten by his father and really struggled with his identity and self-acceptance. He never managed to live his life freely and with self-love. It's a sad and moving story, and I wish I could've changed this experience for him; but that would require a time machine and a few miracles.
Let's be free of judgement and prejudice. Let's love and accept each other for our magnificent light and humanhood. No one is truly better than another, no matter what we think or feel.
Remember: The Universe needs you. You're special and a blessing.
I am worthy
By Michelle Morris

You're my parents
You brought me into this world
I'm a part of your family
You're part of my soul
We're connected
Through time and space
Through our soul contracts
Our relationship and soul lessons
As I grew older
Developed into myself
I realised that I
Was different from others
But I knew of your bias
Your fears and bigotry
And realised that my
Authentic self was hideous
To you, to our family
And it made me insecure
About where I stood
In this big, big world
The lesson I had to learn
Was to love myself
For who I am
No matter the doubt
For I am a blessing
I am worthy of love
I am worthy of dignity
Kindness and support
A life of happiness
Joy and acceptance
I know the Universe
Needs my essence
Each of us is part
Of a greater pattern
Sparks and energy
Quarks and atoms
God and His Angels
Guide and bless my path
For I'm part of the Universe
Part of its precious heart

My mind is no longer stuck in one process.
I Stopped retaining all the negative.
I am learning how to exterminate it .
I will forgive those who know no better.
I need a distraction.
I need to re-think.
Re-train thoughts that I have been learned.
Like a recording echoing in my minds ear.
I have no time for idle chatter of misgivings.
No more energy wasted on negativity.
No more slumbering thoughts of a destiny to be lived unloved.
For I know I am worthy of greatness.
For I know I am worthy of happiness.
I am worthy of all things that create harmony and joy.
I will take that invisible key, unlock my minds door that shelters.
My greatness will be revealed, my true power ready to be witnessed.
It is now time to throw away the darkening madness of self defamation.
To begin the affirmation of self love.
To bath in its warming light.
Exhale out all the demons who have kept me trapped.
Inhale the sweet smell of the wisps of Angels.
Following their foot prints.
Helping to lead me to my true higher self.
Seeing the beauty, singing with glory.
Spreading my wings.
Learning once again how it feels to fly.
* If you want to be in their heart tomorrow, be in their life today.
Touch the cornerstone of parenthood, love them with fervent
Open hearted dedication. As a mother or father, only you can give them the
Upbringing they need, the understanding of themselves. Just love them and
Caress their souls with inspiration. Help them to achieve their dreams ,
Holding nothing back. Live for them and enjoy the contentment of parenthood;
And when they grow up and are ready to spread their wings and fly, don't
Negate their desires. Love is all about letting go, share space, then
Do the right thing by them. Do not raise them co-dependent but sane
Guide them and teach them self assurance and self acceptance
Only you can guide them lovingly. So bless them, everyday.

Many in the limelight aim
Despite diverse back rounds they came
Whether a regular Joe Schmoe
or a ma dames
For stratospheric fame
Sought after imprimatur
like some competitive games
Possibly an ordinary Jonny comb lately
or the common Jimmy James schmuck oh
Maybe known by some handi
capping them as lame
Transcending unsightly infliction
unwilling to let being maim
(This from drafted
scarred acquiring above name)
Yet overcoming any stigma or shame
Proving that prejudice
against bloody carnage
can replaced with pride
against cooling jets fiery angry flame
With self-acceptance
sans love of self would tame.
