cherishing the moment

Gazing into the misty
sea without any
disturbance

It leaves one
cherishing the
the rhythm and
embodiment
of spirituality

Treading into the
poetically inclined
of jazz as the
backdrop

Dispersing into the
air of clear intentions

Like the Black sea
that is golden as
the black pearl of
life

Golden lady as one
presumed to be

A gesture as pure
as the sunrise
of the Caribbean

As the Aegean Sea
rises the Phoenix

Spellbound in its
spirits and lifting
with provocation
and conviction

Dancing in the fire
of life and smiling
amid war

Gliding and swerving
as the awakened ignites
the fire within

Allured by the fiery
spirit of conquering
and seizing the moment
of opportunity

When everyone warrants
differently

And allowing the
Roaring lion to manifest
In the trenches
As many doubted
One’s stamina
And talents

Awakened the
phoenix that
one’s ancestors
bestowed upon
it’s highly favored
and talented child

A forbidden legacy
that only attributes
to the resiliency and
conviction of victory

And dispelling the
narrative and gleaning
with provocation of
tenacity

The unthinkable
will rise as it may
be taboo for many
but it is a state of
normalcy for the
majestic and royal

standing astute
and prideful
and saying today,
tomorrow will the
legacy that leaves
traces of greatness,
power for centuries
to come—

Thank you!
