Child Abuse Month-Linking Pin Sonnet"Raise the Shields"
(Dr. Spence Linking Pin Sonnet for Child Abuse Prevention Month)
Cries pierce the silence where trust should have grown,
Grown are the shadows where safety's unknown,
Unknown are the wounds that no eye can see,
See how the soul screams while lips whisper "free."
Free them from hands that betray every vow,
Vow to stand firm and protect them...

SUNSHINE - MOTHER NATURES GIFT - POTD
Golden rays radiate from above
Energising the world with warmth and love
Illuminating our precious earth
Shining light on its true value and worth
Generating a healthy glow
One that thrives, breeds and grows
Flora and fauna bask in its rays
Grateful for the warmth of summer days
Brightening thoughts ,motivating minds
Creating positivity , negativity left behind
Days viewed in a more positive light

Silent Songs of the Soul
Written: April, 29, 2025, for contest Sponsored by: Robert James Liguori
********************
Soulful manes croon gently in silence
The optimism has hidden purposes,
A single tear fell at twilight
A hollow howl where a grin turns sad,
A far-off display’s vibrant lights
shine brightly, a whole scene ...

A Touch of RomanceYou can hear the echo of days gone by,
memories linger their silent refrain,
as timeless love long ago still beckons;
come follow me down to Featherbed Lane.
Back to the place where our love first began;
where eyes first locked within our silent gaze,
but we were so young and innocent then,
not knowing...

Purple Dreams In Other Realms
Once upon a magical evening an enchanted fairy I happened to see
dressed in a fantastical dress with two dappled wings of lace,
she shone like the midnight sun;
I must confess, she looked rather whimsical
sitting there by a green wooden door, waiting for your lore!
As I sat upon...

A Wilderness of Mirrors
What do I see,
you are looking back at me.
In my youth wearing a top of pink polka dots,
with a skirt of green and orange fabric knots.
As I looked-I laughed until I cried,
every time the wilderness mirrors walk by.
These very old mirrors are such a thrill,
they love my fashion wear even if it is over...

ABORTED REALITYStolen and re-rooted here,
We can no longer be as
Their virgin forest—
Raped and impregnated
By heirs of their slavery,
And rechained with infertile
Emancipation ejaculations:-
With this climax,
Need I seek to excrete
Anymore aborted reality?

Time My Funny Friend"Time... Always here but never here." By Poet
Time my funny friend,
I cannot see you or feel you.
Yet time you are always with me,
from morning until night.
The clocks tick off,
the many minutes and hours.
The calendar takes off the 365 days,
52 weeks and the 12 months.
Time where do you live,
out in space or in the clocks?
My...

Self-discoverySelf-discovery
I have been robbed of the joy well deserved,
The golden confidence beneath,
The inner peace.
I have been robbed of a voice, treasured
Caged, and echoing behind my rib cage.
What a long journey of discovery,
Discovery of wealth carried in me.
And now I am a walking art,
Built from fragments of my broken past.
I peeped through my destiny,
In between blank...
