   burning up   from sun
hard to run
 hard  to  lay a  beach cot
its JUST
TO HOT...

The neighbor Who said?
You Look A little gray

Tiempo Profundo
 to my son, Tito 


A handful of sand in the angel's palm,
how often you strummed and sifted the metaphor 
of Long Beach (since you were four and rolled 
and unrolled and jotted down the specks of time 
as if you knew what was behind the flimsy skies
that threw your quantum song asunder)....

Lavender smell of Long Beach once more
eclectic vibes suffused the air
sheer curtains twiddled by Gulf breeze

Big sky, green of pines
nostalgia rained supremely pure
irises seventy years strong

Blinding of a blue bird
lightening flashed warnings
rain clouds frolicked with thunder

Valley of fire and ice
flight of a bluebird
the lighthouse as gift.

St. John gave its pupils arithmetic
I glided through these 
Like breeze of Belize

Los Angeles City College leveled me
Algebra had me on my knees

YET

I clamored to Cal. State, Long Beach,
Where Information Science sacked me

I fought back on campus lush lawns
Lingered crossed-leg in summer sun

WON

My grade was not an F
I graduated and felt blessed.

AWAKE IN LONG BEACH


awaiting the perk 

from freshly brewed java 

the lull in gull squabble over 

a tide dredging up debris

blemishing beach

husband and wife

skiffs passing in night 

each wake muster 

“good morning” 

sugar black coffee

crack boiled eggs 

never a smile

their chink in armor

invisible

amour not at all

what it’s cracked up to be...

Lost-At-Sea
Snowflakes dance along the weary bough
The grey sky shows a clearing
The sand plays on the long beach now
Red Kites dive with daring

Sea grass is greener at this time
The light is so white it bites
A faraway bell begins to chime
The warmth of the village invites

Dreams can be lost in the dreaming
Lives are mislaid out of sight
The sea wraps itself into minds that sing
Sad hymns in the quiet of the night
