    SAVIOR OF MY SOUL

    A place where
    I feel I belong
    and have found
    my second home.

    A place to rest
    all the words
    churning within
    my heart.

    A place where
    the core of my soul
    was miraculously born.

    A place where
    I made
    so many friends.

    A place where
    my dreams
    came to fruition.

    The only place
    I wish to put
    my poetry.

    Tried other places,
    but nowhere else
    did I receive
    this kind of love.

    Everyday, I am
    in awe of
    the talent gracing
    these pages.

    The gifted words
    of so many poets
    captivate me and
    hold my soul for days.

    Whenever I am
    feeling down,
    I come here
    and immediately feel
    my being rise and glow.

    I believe
    it was fate
    that brought me
    to this beautiful place;
    the savior of my soul.

    And to Destee
    our queen mother,
    I am forever indebted
    to you for giving me
    such a wonderful place
    to launch the rebirth
    of my life.

    Destee, you are
    a warm and
    compassionate
    person.

    How can I
    thank you
    for giving me
    such a fabulous place
    to forever cherish.

    This is not only
    a poetry forum,
    it is a home
    where a family
    was born and
    is still growing.

    From the depth
    of my soul Destee,
    I thank you for
    helping me find
    my destiny.

    May this place
    always be blessed
    with kindness
    and generousity.

    The qualities
    my dear Destee
    you so graciously
    possess.

    Always,
    all my love
    to you all.

    Watching over the family
    I've watched the family grow
    from few to many
    once a very vocal voice
    I now remain silent
    until I am needed
    Destee's World
    has given
    life to my words
    supplied me inspiration
    beyond belief
    she's trusted us
    with the freedom to flow
    so now I show my appreciation
    in tribute to a queen
    who never said no to the Extreme
    but embraced it
    as the brothers flowed with it
    never censored me
    when I got a little out of pocket
    due to poetic terrorists
    that would darken her door
    She is the queen mother of us all
    and I bow in humble reverence
    she whose work ethic has encourage me
    to revamp my own
    Destee you know you have much love
    from the third member of Brothers Xtreme
    I love you and I love this place I call home
    and I will continue to Watch over this place
    until the end of time and beyond....

    Destiny has foretold a Queen,
    Electrifying energy emanates from she,
    Symbolic and hypnotic-
    This chocolate glazed Goddess,
    Emerging from flames of tribulation,
    Encouraging our people across the nation,

    Dynamically beautiful is she,
    Enticing, this Queen of Royalty,
    Sincere in her sensualistic sensibility,
    Thoughts laced with integrity-
    Evolve from her entirety,
    Eternally blessed with the gift of generosity,

    Divinely blessed with inner luminosity,
    Enriching my mind daily,
    Stimulating my soul entirely,
    There are not enough words to say,
    Enough of this Queen who still lives today,
    Eloquently eliminating hate and dismay,

    Dreams of a better society-
    Endeavors for someone like she-
    Spirit heard my pleas – created DESTEE
    The Queen Manifest, reborn in she,
    Enthralling our spirits, stimulating our minds amidst society,
    Essence of a true Queen- the one the only
    DESTEE
