Tatooine and Beyond
A child's ideation
engrossing images marvels the eyes of a child whose
celluloid fantasies establish a stage for influence...
life is a collection of pivotal moments, providing
instances of grandeur, impacting the thoughts of personal missions
passionate dreams lead to golden ventures when they
solidify, move forward and compliment the direction of academic pursuit
every child is a bundle of potential, foraging through their imagination, searching for that rare stardust… not yet knowing that failure is waiting to strengthen... The Force.

Lila's Legacy: The Wisdom of Eldergrove
Among a sacred and enduring forest, Eldergrove village, a tiny one, was situated. The villagers were humble, and they closely lived with the nature to which they returned what they owned by the nature and took only what they required. Not far away from them was a young woman named Lila, who all trees could describe their language into her ears. A kind and gentle heart was her own, she has every soul in her hands. Then, one incredible afternoon, Lila was moving past areas that she had never wandered that far before, and she discovered a hidden glade mysteriously bathed by golden rays. The most beautiful tree had its limbs spread out at the heart of the grotto and its silver leaves that glittered in the sun rays. Upon her arrival, she was greeted by the sight of a small leather bound manuscript entrapped in the root clusters, carefully wrapped in the foliage that was the color of emerald, and adorned with intricate patterns of gold. Gloriously, she raised the volume with her heartbeat exactly the same and opened it. Through this sentence the character's bond with the book became stronger. Thus, the first sentence reads, 'She was silent, barely a whisper.

A Weekend in Buxton
All my life, I’ve been English in an emotional, mental, and social way, but never a physical one until the Spring of 2022 when all my Anglophile dreams came true. I was finally able to visit my soul country, meet my wonderful online friends in person, and confirm my belief that it was where I belonged.

Brilliant & Beautiful! BRAVO Lamar! 💪🏾
The stories (movies) we enjoy as kids has such an impact on us 😁
Stardust sprinkled by pixies on every child's dream, wishing them to awaken to fulfill their highest potential. Magical and hopefully realized by all. Such profound words for childhood wishes. Lovely poetry.
Aw, I love the message of this so much, along with the word choices! I was playing around with the word "grandeur" the other day and couldn't quite make it fit. So lovely to see it here - you've constructed thus beatifully 🤗
My favourite lines are "passionate dreams lead to golden adventures when they solidify" and "every child is a bundle of potential, foraging through their imagination, searching for that rare stardust…" This is so important and cannot be overstated. I believe there's an Afrikan proverb that says that a "child not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth." There are definite nuances available here, since if we do not connect with our purpose, express our creativity as aspects of our destiny, and/or do not connect with the unique divinity within us... the only place left, is a space for darkness to fill. Great take on the challenge!
Excellent acrostic, Lamar! I'm impressed by the unique theme, too!
Excellent work Lamar. I like how you dramatically advanced the poem's ultimate message.
Straight up love this bc Tatooine was my fav in Star Wars Battlefront 2
This was extremely powerful and it packed a punch! Loved your Acrostic!
This is a wonderfully clever and devious entry to the Eclipse Acrostic challenge, Lamar. The Death Star eclipsing the sun is pure, hysterical genius!
I love this! You went Star Wars on the end!
Instances of grandeur. I think I will now declare myself in pursuit of an instance of grandeur when I'm after a certain type of entertainment.
So the force consists of failure? Yoda would not be pleased.
There are some wisdom in the poetry . Excellent acoustic poetry !!!!
