Long Cabana Poems

Dear  Olabosoye Oluwafunmilayo 
Raise up with joy  your cup
To thank Him- the standing backup
Being off and on like an innocent pup
Smiling at the lightproof to have a closeup

Toast to the new leaf turned
Hallelujah...

Island Of Fantasy Contest
Sponsor: Nayda Ivette Negron


I shared a margarita with you as we tip-toed through the sandy shores of Beautificia Island. No one in sight…just me…you...and the gentle current rising up toward our ankles....

Piercing my heart:

Her nose-pin twinkles at me,
Her lip-ring smiles at me,
Her dark eyes make me lust,
Leaving everything like rust.
Her cheek-piercings make fake dimples,
Fake eyelashes arise ripples,
Inside my heart.
She is a prostitute from Havana,
I first met...

When the bronze-skinned, 
silver tongue surfer
came smoothly yacht cruising
at year’s end
All the island ladies,
at the cabana house welcoming party,
mosh pit fell in ... 
Fell in love 
with the cosmopolitan thought
of permanently leaving
Loose their dinghy life...

You say you want lots of rum? Put it in a big fat drum.
Cooking oils put in drums too. Soy or canola will do.

Put your hands in a basin. Want a jar? How about a...

Long slow waves roll towards sandy beach
	breaking with white foam as they grow near
as sound of surf fills the breeze
	and air is full of tang of salt

just off shore in the rolling waves
	dolphins frolic swimming...

Wrote this for the biggest Blake Shelton Fan contest

With a "Hillbilly Bone" down deep inside
There is no way Blake can hide
How country that he can be
He's a little "Honey Bee"
With eyes that are bright and...

Walking slowly on the lily-white beach

winding down from the pressures of work

a warm breeze teases my sun-kissed cheek

and I thank God I'm here for a week

Sunrays sprinkling sensuous massages upon me

 weary blue eyes concealed...

Alaina
Se llamaba Alaina
She stole my heart in a cabana
I still can’t listen to Santana
I need my gotta see my Alaina-na-na-na
My Alaina-na-na-na
Oh oh oh oh oh, um um um um
  
Her hips did all the...

I see the beauty of the sangria sun setting in the west,
the chartreuse leaflets upon my white rose bush flourish-
The tiny little robins have started a family in their nest, 
as mother nature begins to...

I’d Rather Remember Christmas In July

Because we cannot rely that 
you’ll be alive beyond July, 
this year let’s have Christmas 
in Hawaii and in the month of July.

What a high that will be to scuba...

Dressed to steal
be these corporate suit crooks
Smiling for the cameras,
they do their heist in plain sight
Custom tailored appearance is the image portrayed,
rogue makeup 
is the Photoshop picture being digitally overlaid
Tuxedo, black tie and a tweet

The Prussian clear blue water exaggerates my observation,
the reverie lingers with an ebb flow of nature’s sounds-
I feel at ease when gazing at this beautiful God-given creation
of the majestic Mountaintop Lake, its elegance resounds.

Snap the pictures,
get ready to be repulsed
Iron Man is on the nude again
	Naked lies,
wearing flimsy linguistic lingerie
Dictators don’t bother to disguise
what they think, do or say
Business man, 
	Tony Stark alter ego
Putin wannabe ...
		Strong man model...

Trumpets resound through the archways
spilling out onto the ancient cobblestone streets
pulling me closer with every upbeat note
into the direction of the tropical seaside cabana

My old weathered tan top-siders tap 
these old arthritic knees start to...

The sea was calm as I have ever seen
A slight western breeze chilled
My over sunned cheeks
It wasnt last call at the Cabana
But it was for me as the moon 
Reached ever higher into the
Infinite night...

Where I BELONG to be is with you by my longing side,
Over the Atlantic or Pacific; which shall we decide?

He walked down the high street in tropical Havana
Where he spotted a bar named the Copa Cabana
The weather was hot he could do with a drink 
An ice cold beer and some time to think...

HELL IS ME---

Can’t remember to live or die;
So morbid is the times;
Cries of the undertaker, not enough people dying;

As a survivor from hell;
Angels no all too well;
The prism’s stone;
Melts the hearts of those;

Cabana, the points...

We feel the changes
of the seasons
still we stay 
for our own reasons
I because the time recalls
when we nearly had it all
He because
his olive skin
reflects the sun,
absorbs his friends
our cabana
sags and shivers
near the winter line
that quivers

Out to lunch, grab a hunch
It's cue, reward, punch!!
Tickle their stimulus 
Can't resist the urge
Spilling gasoline dollars
Fliing cabana wheels

So lets golf it out
Proud caddy packs a streamline 5-iron
Shimmy through the window drop
Launching pies like Proctor...
