Tecoman, Colima: Year 2006

Wide-faced baby still crossing her legs, 
Shivering inside her own mother’s womb,
Her parts stay hidden from the ultrasound’s cold, metal screening,
Warm pool of darkness heating up as kicking goes wild, 
Already moving through mother’s quick anger,
Already formed and already asking….
Wanting more time, wanting more time.

Mother’s eyes glow brightly, brown almonds growing wide as I am

Why would I want to see you play?
You broke what!
We don’t have money to spend on Doctors,
You hear me boy!

School is to learn,
Not to play football
Do your homework and get to bed,
Tomorrow is another day
You hear me boy!

Another game is over
So Lick your wounds and go home.
Don’t go where teens congregate
It

Because God in his wisdom did foreknow
That man would never be able
He sent His son Jesus to dwell on earth
Being born of the Virgin Mary in a stable

God then so willed that this same Jesus
Would give His life’s blood on Calvary’s tree
Though He knew no sin,

Our country’s birthday has arrived
And once again at war our heroes toil.
Our nations brave once more has been summoned
To lay down boot prints on foreign soil;

They serve in air, on land, and sea 
Their time becoming memories wrapped in sand;
The sacrifices made let us never forget
Nor that God sheds his grace

A Child’s Eyes
By
Tom Wright

Each time we peer 
Into the eyes of a child there’s a choice
We can walk away or become involved.
For behind each child’s colored windows
Lay the answers to future problems unsolved.

Their innocence
Directs the eye’s communiqué.  
Unwitting children needing Godly training,
A vehicle of choice is Vacation Bible School
Lessons there learned,

40 Years 2006

40 Years  2006

I went  to a dance one night
in the Fall of ‘64
and danced with your friend for awhile
and than I saw you at first glance
 with that Leslie Caron smile
we met and you spoke of Colombia
your native land then I took your hand
 and we danced on and on 
for many suns

Cosmic Shake-Up In 2006

So sorry, Pluto! You cannot be deemed
		“ninth planet” anymore because there’s been
		a redefining that eliminates
		you from the list of planets. Since you’re kin

		to the remaining eight, you will be called
		“dwarf planet.” This downsizing of the list
		must be a blow to your esteem. Please know
		some people will be shocked, and you’ll be missed!
		
		You’re really little, smaller

So young and so in love
       in a marriage from above-
Countless surgeries on my
ovaries,
How much can one woman
             suffer through?
The allure of having a baby 
    was always a dream come true,
yet when I

Nightmares Poem From June of 2006

When I wrote and posted my poem about nightmares earlier I had totally forgotten about the following poem. I found it today going through a box of books. It's more of a brevity piece. Although at the time I wouldn't have known to call it that. Thought some might like to see my earlier take

Yes George There Is a Santa Claus 2006

Yes George! There is a Santa Claus! 
The troops want out.
But you want to pout.
With your nose in the air.
A great big snout.
The war in Iraq.
We know it is past.
We know it is past.
But you want to laugh.
You don't have to lie.
You should actually cry.
Yes George! There is a Santa Claus! 
Many have died.
While many

Mobile Home Since 2006

Bubble up from the cauldrons huddled
I scoot taglines that bag dimes
On a new Federal currency
Cannibus merchants will see

We come petticoats 
From the revolution coast to coast
Riddling on a fiddle
Daring to bunk tea in the captains meridian

Im ready to mix
With banshees, warlocks
And our mother empress

You can't touch the immaterial goods
Making paper requires no wood
Just love for

My Lasting Treasure September 2006

Inside my heart there was an empty space,
it was waiting for you.
Something changed in my life, a sudden burst of happiness came over me,
a reality so true.

I always felt something was missing,
until the day I see your face.
You brought something new to my world, so exciting,
yet real, now I've found my place.

You take my breath

Christmas Poem 2006

CHRISTMAS


				Christmas day began 
				With a child of virgin birth
				When Jesus, our Lord and Savior, 
				Came to dwell on earth

				This is a time we celebrate
				And thank our God above
				For Sending His Son to save the world
				Through His marvelous gift of love

				Now, there are those who would take away
				The reason for the season
				And have us proclaim Happy
