Best Juan Poems

When first we met, in sailor town,
the slim jim chased, and I was found.
His greedy lips did hold me down.
With me, he wed, and we were bound.

But leaves did crisp and we did fall
into set ways beneath old oak.
The charm and grace did hit a...

THE ISLANDS OF SAN JUAN - TIMESHARE

[FOLKTALE]

IN A PORTION, A SPELL IS CASTE.
THE PEOPLE ARE CALLED NUGLUMMI.
IN A TRANCE STATE, THEY EAT HONEY AND BEES ARE FORM FROM THEIR EYES.
INSIGHTFULLY THEY BEGIN TO TRANSFORM THE TERRAIN AND ISLANDS FORMED FOR THE FREEDOM OF WOMAN AND...

Encuéntrame en mi suspiro del Viejo San Juan

Llévame por la mano al camino de pierdas
Deja que el sol dirija nuestro caminar . . .
La espuma blanca que sube y trae sonrisas y lagrimas
La protección de Sta. Bárbara
El camino de adoquines al paseo del pasado
La joya...

It was a bright sunny day, though mixed with scattered sprinkles of snow, 
The Lord had a special soul yet to be given a name this November morning and so…………..
Looking down upon his mother earth,
A young man named George and a young woman named Rose

The fall roundup, Old Brown Ranch in 1976
Sat below Cathedral Peak, Calamity Creek was running slow
A mule deer behind almost every cedar tree
Old Juan was getting ready for his day of tricks
It was early in the morning, he wanted everyone to know
Pots and pans clanging,...

Give me a cup of coffee so I can face the day
Fresh from the ground beans of Senor Juan Valdez,
A magic elixir, always my morning mainstay
Give me a cup of coffee so I can face the day!
If I don’t have my coffee, someone will pay
No...

Don Juan In Saskatchewan

We had driven until the next new dawn,
We did find ourselves in Saskatchewan;
Lakes would love;
Mountains above;
Name of person driving was Don Juan.

James Don Juan Horn

If it was done by Juan,
Happened on an autobahn....

San Juan
The flowering trees
The island breeze

San Juan

The raised cross walk
We faint – we balk
The narrow streets
The salsa beats
The swaying palm
The driver’s calm
The soft sand beach
The natives speech
The evening rains
The food – plantains
The fortress walls
The wild bird calls
The slower pace
The warm embrace

San Juan

The humid air
The sweat...

A Can of Coke with Juan
(Well, Diet Coke, because I care about my health, I guess)

One day in July as I attended the thrift store donation door, I received a strange give-away:
Several black garbage bags of a seventeen-year-old boy’s belongings that his family couldn’t stand...

Samantha gave her Daddy a disdainful look
He’s been out again with that ripper old chook
He’s been acting all gaga, the silly old fool
Isn’t it disgusting the way that men drool
Well maybe the oldies, ain’t’ got that long
So he’s having a naughty and singing his song
Dating...

His name’s John, but they call him Juan.
Got gamblin’ in his veins.
Loves poker without the joker,
An’ plays cards when it rains.

It wet us all one day last Fall,
An' they came together.
She's dealin' draw, her charms he saw,
He loved rainy weather.

He said,” Honey, play for money,
I...

You make me feel insecure
Looking at me with your condescending eyes
Yeah you look good, have a job, got a ride and a house
Nah I aint your blue collar, white collar chick
I walk alone to a beat that only few hear
You think you are so smart
Using...

As I grow into the women I was created to be I stumbled upon the man that I felt was made

never hide the love I felt for...

En Mi Viejo San Juan!
 *In My Old San Juan"
      
      ~I Just Dreamt~
Of an old, delicious flame
from Puerto Rico.
Strutting in his own unique,
Very sexy way. 

Perfect hair, perfect suit.
Oh, he was just stunning.
Gliding, it seemed with his,
tall and oh, so perfect body.

His soft, dark...

Don't invite a statue to your party.
Don't mess with beings made of stone.
Frail mortals are much more hearty,
so keep safely to weak flesh and bone.
Don Juan, that notorious rake,
seduced ladies, we know, by the score.
No loaf would he let overbake.
He had no time for morals...
