From the depths of my heart, thanks for all you do.

I came to you dreary and lost, seeking whom I ought to be.
You didn’t turn nor scoff, you instead saw me as the person I would become. You didn’t shun my cowardice or seraph me with sympathy.
You honored me, gave me a torch that was more than I could bear. When my hands were shanking, you bowed my knuckles, making them fists of sinew. You showed me toward adversity, leading me forward, and through the highest height.
You’ve held me up, through doubts and self denial. When my light was quivering, you shielded me with the last of your strength. How noble of you, going the extra distance for me, no matter the length.
When I surrendered to the strong bellows of the wind, you rekindled my light with you stern and never quivering faith in me.
When I fall to my face, you picked me up, continuously, placed me upon a pedestal and allowed me to beam, brighter than I thought that I could.
Thanks to you, I am the best version of myself I never thought was possible.
Your Crumbled strength is my leaning post and mycowardice is yours to host.

From the depths of my heart, thanks for all you do.

~For My Dear mentor and Angel, Jackie.

Mother’s Day Presentation

   Since my second book is dedicated to Mother’s Day, I thought I should capitalize on this opportunity as an entrepreneur. I would like to sell at least 100 books between now and the 14th of May. It would be immensely rewarding to know that my book has been a blessing to you and your Mother or any female figure in your life.

Chrisanthe-Mom   My second book is entitled Chrisanthe-Mom, Chrisanthe-Mom, which is the name of my mother. This is a book of poetry that depict women in various ways.

   How will I reach and surpass this goal? I know it seems unattainable, but I know that I can achieve this goal. Recently, I have learned a valuable lesson and since then, I have decided that I will never lower or alter my expectations for myself or my goals simply because my limited or ideal expectations were not or have not yet been met. Rather, I will raise my expectations a flight higher and aspire towards them with passions a new while exuding the virtue of patience.

   With that said, I am in great anticipation. I am a Poet and self-published author and before this year comes to an end, I would like to have 5 books published. This campaign to sell a minimum of 100 books for Mother’s Day this year will grant me self-generated revenue to invest in my career as an author.

   Please help me reach my goal. Purchase your copy of Chrisanthe-Mom and share my vision with someone. Chrisanthe-Mom makes an excellent gift for Mother’s Day because it is dedicated to Mothers and women at large.

   I wanted to share something with you that was graced by God’s own anointing, so I prayed extensively and in His own timing, I have been entrusted with this honor, which I do not take this lightly. My poetry is my ministry. Mothers Day is my all time favorite holiday! This Mother’s Day, I will be putting on a presentation for mothers, women, and pretty much everyone. I am working with the amazing team of Creative Outlet (Dance Company) to put together this ministry. This will be on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 13th, 2018. At Mount Pisgah Baptist Church. We’re choreographing an interpretive dance to one of my poems from my second book, (Chrisanthe-Mom)

    I know this will be a blessing to you.
-Stay tuned!

A Place Before Trodden, 2018

2018, a place long trodden.
Have you ever taken a train to or past a  particular subway station? Have you ever been to a specific place, and upon arrival, you’re welcomed by a familiar embrace? (Like, perhaps it’s a distinct or vague memory.) Have you ever felt more connected, inclined, or in alignment with a particular quest, a movement, or an adventure. —Almost as if you’ve been there before, but somehow, you’re quizzical about when, or why you were there, or even how you ended up there?

Chrisanthe-Mom

   Chrisanthe-Mom, Volume II of Mr. Poet, is an eloquent selection of poetry that is prestigiously dedicated, at large, to women and to mothers in a more specific manner. Chrisanthe-Mom entails an array of topics that explore the purpose of having a mother and is dedicated to the occasion of Mother’s Day.  Chrisanthe-Mom is a token of honor to mothers for their lifelong duties for which they’re oftentimes not even thanked.
