Medgar Wiley Evers, a name strong and powerful
The college, a mission of knowledge, Understanding and Education excellence
The beauty of essence
CUNY Medgar Evers College being my discovery
Yes this is the story
Medgar Evers College showed me the way in being the person I was seeking and supposed to be
I became the graduate the world did see
I was a truly believer in Evers Teachings
It was the transformation enhancement of the Medgar Evers College uplift
Coming to Medgar Evers College was the balance of what can be achieved and the offset of Social Justice
I learned knowing where I belong
Being prepared for the challenge in getting along
Yet, Medgar Evers College enriched my educational soul like an upgraded electronic component
Stand on purpose with a mission in mine
Set the standards while drawing the line
The discovery of Medgar Evers College was my own exploration
I was on the launching pad, but aimed with the foundation of learning being success
Being my MEC alumni was my honor and privilege of appreciation
Many said I was not college material
But Medgar Evers College changed that into “I was Capable”
Destiny was in my corner because of Medgar Evers College efforts
So Medgar Evers College fulfilled me in being one of their many products for success and beyond
Words can be expressed, but understanding must be an answer. Medgar Evers College showed my own elevation into education as an open door. I entered and was enriched with instilling self-esteem in every way. Medgar Evers College objective was my take away of always remember and don’t forget.”

An image is walking
Somewhere a legacy is stalking
There are cries with emotions expelling
But distance is truly far
It’s not a place driven by a car
But understanding being clarified
In fact, the image was of someone I once knew
I had to really put the pieces together through
It was a friend who died many years ago
But there is an although
Who was this image, and why did they appear?
I felt fear
I didn’t want that image near
But the image said, “Don’t you remember me?”
When the image got closely, I realized it was an old female friend from college being like a Grandmother too me
Her name plain and comforting being Lois Copeland
So that distance seemed far, but came near
The image was encouraging in continuing to preserver.

Yo Buddy, you are on this exact bar stool every day well into the night
You are trying to drink away your plight
Your problem won’t go away gulping down *****
It will only make your problem even more confused
Put the ***** glass down for a moment
You and I need to chat
The Bar Stool wants you to share your facts
What exactly led you in thinking ***** is the way to work problems out?
Your mind becomes fuzzy and understanding has no about
You are in a Bar drowning your sorrows
Live and face the problem, there is a tomorrow
The idea is to work all struggles out
Are you sleeping at night?
You keep focusing on whatever your plight
When uncertain try to pray
When things are not ok
Pray in guiding in showing you the way
Drinking only separates in causing you to go astray
Just say to yourself, my plight will be solved on this day
This bar stool wanted to encourage
I am instilling for you to have full courage
Put understanding
Nourish your soul
Then take hold
Tomorrow is a new day
Embracing is what you should do in every way
Pray

A Novelist thought clever in wanting to write a trivial story
He had all the details with bringing all its glory
How will the reader respond?
It’s anybody’s guess
The Novelist controls the theory being his trump card
But the story has a strong tail
Now let me illustrate without fail
The conclusion is the start with a turnaround
It was ****** in the start being a conclusion of the dialog
Later the story becomes a turnaround with knock at the door that led to the ******
Now there is no specific order
The idea is too visualize in your mind what the outcome should be
The Novelist is only setting the background with the situation
Yet there is a lot of reverse in the turnaround
The identity of the murderer is not really clear
But there is uncertainty being fear
The Novelist write, and suddenly pauses
He thinks to himself in where the story should begin
But does the reader want to depart instead
The conclusion in begin sounding more like an illusion
But there is a lot of confusion
Puzzled on face
This whole story could become a total erase

What do each letter represent?
Does your heart expel in what they spell?
Every letter being a meaning within its self
Sentences only guide and explain
The words are looking to captivate your very soul
Into the mind wanting you to explore
The words are determined and forcing you to not ignore
They are the conquerors being the seekers
They are the believers in one letter at a time
The words want to show you their world you have never seen
But your mind must be ready to come clean
Imagine yet believe
The surface of your forbidden soul
Open up and let the words enter
Surprises after surprises
What comes out is realize
Words you never knew
Their story in what they can do
But now you have a clue
All new
Hidden words all along

Bride and Groom
Love comes together as one in the moment being soon
Bridesmaids forming the Bridal Party
A festival celebration of love to share
The wedding is planned carefully with all the trimmings of care
The Groom and his best man will all stand together
The music will play the enchanted wedding song
My choice would be “Here and Now” by Luther Vandross
The Bride feeling proud
The smile and captivation being allowed
The Bride is thinking, I am actually getting married
The Parents are thinking on both sides, we really paid for this wedding and it is no dream
Later the vows take place
Secrete words to each other having no haste
Then after that moment, the kiss lock making for Mr. and Mrs being the marriage seal
The couples are united being for real
Walking in everlasting bliss
Again following that kiss
The Honeymoon later a waits
This is where Husband and Wife will appreciate
Days of fun and night passion exchange
Husband and Wife create
This is where I will initiate
The Wine glass is raised in the couples honor
Love, reflect and always remember
Love through it all
