After repeat defeats were strewn
The timing was most opportune
Started on an afternoon in June
Bazball did enthrall was a boon
Love new plans fans did croon
Bliss soaring sixes above festoon
Adoring this scoring monsoon
At the gall all pundits did swoon
Can’t impugn change of fortune
Batting assault & new era hewn
For 2 years were over the moon
Luxuriating in the Bazball lagoon
Magical mystical & mythical rune
Could stop Tests from dying soon
Harbinger of gunslinger’s saloon
Save cricket from its silver spoon
From results the cult couldn’t cocoon
Faults and default style won’t prune
Want to party like they’re in Cancun
Down under plunder burst the balloon
Stokes went from typhoon to buffoon
As the ECB and Key he did lampoon
Then Ben again did his team maroon
So it ends like any loony tune cartoon
As high noon for that wee Kiwi racoon
English Test tycoon to white ball goon
"That’s all folks” Baz’s bull finally spewn

Global PTSD is a man made creation.
Limiting the places we once took vacations.
We shouldn't visit Cancun or European cities.
Something bad could happen to our families.
There's a change in the air and not for the best.
There is a serious risk travelling outside the U.S.
This was accomplished within the course of a year.
An American passport is not welcomed anywhere.
It's impossible to tell who just might have a beef.
Since we've managed to piss off about every country.
My advice would be to stick close to home.
To avoid the negative underlying tones.
Part I
The wolf had been knocking at the door
Longer than I had realized
A young man saw an old man in the mirror
It's taken all in stride
It's so cold, where did I go?
I hadn't noticed the rust on the jailcell bars
Until I looked at all the scars
I wish I could laugh
Because of a whole heart, I am one half
Where are you? With the devil I presume
Well I'll just fly off to Cancun
Part II
There she goes again
Struggling with a frozen pen
She writes now for another
Because she seems more at ease
There I go writing anything I wish
Writing with no structure, rhythm or verse
Erasing all the lead mistakes
It is not the same as a virgin page
I am sorry it's just not the same
Part III-Parallel Collision
Everyday I die slowly
Each breath I take towards the last
And when all you can be is lonely
You cling to the things in the past
When a child asks you in wonder
About the things you've seen and done
Do you lash out with thunder
Or explain which road you're on?
A lover takes on jealousy
As another vow
I'll take all this hell inside of me
And cast it towards the clouds
"Oh God, please!" I ask as I fall to my knees
"Lift this burden that clings like a shroud!"
Feelin’ stressed about the usual crap?
Tension 'bout as bad as it gets?
Once we breathe in the tequila breeze,
We won’t have any regrets.
We’ll just be lyin’ in the Mayan sun,
Work on our tans and not get anything done.
Then we’ll make love inside the Palace of the Moon.
Cancun.
Gonna learn the local idiom,
Lost in blissful sweet oblivion.
Carve our initials in obsidian.
Cancun.
Got an itch so bad it’s giving you fits?
Better go on and scratch.
We’ll fish the waters where the tides never rise
And release what we catch.
The Gulf of Mexico is everyone’s friend;
Just so long as we have pesos to spend.
We’ll mariachi till we’re sick of the tune.
Cancun.
We’ll say Buenos dios, and por favor
Like children in a candy store.
Hey, our waiter’s from El Salvador!
Cancun.
One day in mid June, in far off Rangoon.
The hand drawn baboon, a comic cartoon,
Was flown to the moon, by hot air balloon.
Then late afternoon, while in his pontoon.
A massive monsoon, blew like a typhoon.
He fired his harpoon, what's next! sometime soon.
4/ 28/ 2017.
( The last adventure of baboon continued )
With Mayday maroon, tied to his galoon
He ditched his cardoon, but ate the dried prune.
It was oppotune, with some good fortune.
He missed a sand dune, and surfed the lagoon.
Then with a soup spoon, rowed home to Cancun.
He now plays basoon, in some old saloon.
This was added after the contest was judged.
The first of May twenty seventeen.
Mexico we have arrived leaving the snow and cold behind
A beautiful beach with warm water what a timely find
For the next week relaxing and warm waters await
Time stands still no need to hurry, fun thinks to create
Having the sun beat down on me , my body rejoices
Eating scrumptious food watching stunning shows some great choices
The staff are great , so helpful and aim to please
Lounging in my beach chair mediating ,wind creates a gentle breeze
Time to create the perfect suntan courtesy of the sun
Music flows through the air , I get up and dance such fun
The food I will savour forever, no waiting in line
The trip like the poem is coming to an end, until next time
I walk into the bathroom to find the grape scented newspaper has an article with too many run - on sentences.
I open the door the refrigerator to find a random receipt on the top shelf.
If I cannot find a channel that refuses to stop mentioning the economic development of a manufacturing plant in Cancun I might as well go back to the grape - scented newspaper.
Today, I tried talking to my cat as he strangled my parakeet and I silently rooted for the bird to live.
I wake up to a bed drenched in my sweat, and I believe it may have been in part due to being excited at the prospect that this was reality.
Room with a view
I'll never forget the day we met,
my neck still hurts from turning my head,
First thing I know you were looking back,
You almost gave me a heart attack
I turned the corner and there you were,
looking all shy and so demure
I knew right then you were made for me
Isn't it funny how life can be?
Chorus 1
Who cares about a room with a view?
When I can stay here and look at you!
Who needs a view of Montserrat?
When I can see that you're looking back
Who cares about a room with a view?
When I can stay here and look at you
Who needs a view of Monaco?
When were here alone with the lights down low!
(you know that it's true yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(you know that it's true yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You and I have been all around the world,
Only been with you 'cause you're my kind of girl
Don't want to be with no one but you
Who cares about a room with a view?
(you know that it's true yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(you know that it's true yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Years gone by and you still turn my head,
I'd still rather look at you instead
I'll look at you till all fades to black,
as long as I see you're looking back
Chorus 2
Who cares about a room with a view?
When I can stay here and look at you
Who needs a view of Iguazu?*
When I can stay here and look at you
Who wants to see all of Cancun?
When we're all alone here in our room!
(you know that it's true yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(you know that it's true yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Years gone by and you still turn my head,
I'd still rather look at you instead
I'll look at you till all fades to black,
as long as I see you're looking back
(you know that it's true yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(you know that it's true yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
repeat and fade to zero
*Iguazu pronounced Ee gwa zoo
Series of waterfalls bordering Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil

With Dolphins, she swam! A glorious day,
for granddaughter, so many years ago.
I watched two gentle beings interplay,
each, nose to nose and eye to eye- aglow.
This was her highlight of our Cancun trip-
to touch the Dolphin's satiny smooth skin,
feel warm emotion kissing, lip to lip,
and see the gentle love in his sweet grin.
Our Dolphins, much like us, can understand-
more than we seem to give them credit for.
The care for humankind at their command;
intelligent, they show their loving core.
This special time will stay with her and me-
forever, as our treasured memory.
