Liming Poems | Examples


Crimes In Trinidad and Tobago

Ah was standing there liming,
Thinking ah was having some fun
Laughing, drinking, and singing
On the Island of Sun

Along came a car with some thugs
And before you know it,
Ah was shot, and now I will
End up in a 6 foot pit

Yuh cannot take time outside
Yuh own home and land
Cause before you know it
You are shot and it’s grand

Trini’s liming
Is not a good thing
It does not matter;
How much you dance and sing
Beware of the gangs
They will take you out with a bang
