Cinco De Mayo

 south of the border
festivals of other  - times
no borders but LIFE. 

Viva Mexico
Today Fifth of May
Because you observe

 LORD may we share some
fetes of others - taste the joys
we lost with culture

NOTE: Mexicans and Mexican-Americans observe 5th of May as a fun holiday. Shalom and Blessings to all nations, and each individual, especially those whose spouses or parents failed them at any point. RISE for you have a TESTimony PTL

Anne-Marie Coreggia Date: 5/5/2017 8:23:00 AM Thank you for brandishing the flag of fraternity Anil. You are right, our multi-cultural fibers enrich us, and I also love your poem because it breaches the very wall some are desperately trying to build:) Amitiés Login to Reply

Demetrios Trifiatis Date: 5/5/2017 7:17:00 AM Delightful Senryu dear, Anil plus very informative! Thank you! I had several students from Mexico when I was lecturing in Canada! BTW the flowers are in place for both of my today's poems, have a look if you wish to see them! Login to Reply

Anil Deo Date: 5/5/2017 3:57:00 AM Footnote: During the US Civil War, French tried to occupy Mexico, - for debts! They were defeated at the Battle of Puebla, and Veracruz was liberated. However, in USA today, people do not recall Napoleon III, France, or even the irony of the 2009 bailout of huge multinational companies at our expense - that of taxpayers & retirees whose pensions were stolen in the name of business. Praise God He taught us forgiveness of even THIS! amen, shalom Login to Reply
