Premium Member I Am a Coqui Frog From Puerto Rico

I’m a coqui frog from Puerto Rico.
Noisiest amphibian as you know.
I’m an inch long
With a mighty song.
My hundred decibel call scares a foe.

Let Tambourines Begin

Puerto Rican girl
thin, thin, 
let street lights pour

bourbon on your hair,
anise on your skin.
Puerto Rican girl,

thin, thin, 
gin one white smile for me.
Let tambourines begin

When another year 
Passes without getting 
The striving results
Change totally life aspects

Chaos In Puerto Rico

Chaos In Puerto Rico

In Puerto Rico living conditions became crude;
Was without much water or enough for food;
We were bare to bone;
Out things were thrown;
All we had was Trump who us liked to delude.

In Puerto Rican Skies

Faces smiling, nodding politely 
At words they don't seem 
To understand,

Show me pictures,
Showing the richness of
A faraway distant land,

Multicoloured motor cars,
Brown apartments 
Rising high in Puerto Rican skies.

Just Beautiful Blue

Just beautiful
Puerto Princesa
My first time
Visit the charm

The breeze of the
Sulu Sea
In the bay walk
touches me

The blue sky
The blue sea
Reflected the beauty
of Palawan

3 Winks To a Dream....Meditating [1977]

a popsicle 
a 
moment 
on 
the 
beach 
we 
never 
had 
Richard Burton

we 
never 
had 
a 
drink 
sitting 
on the king and I 
purple faced 
dream 
island 
mime 
retreat  

a moment of calm, 
………..meditating

Premium Member Peach On the Beach

I spotted the gal laying on the beach She was quite beautiful, just out of reach So, stopping, I said hello I noticed her instant glow And, boy, did she turn out to be a peach.

My Name, My Name

The Bishop St. Paulinus of Nola
      was also a writer

I'm wired 
it's so admired. 
There's one in Puerto 
Rico exact same 
as mine. Another
online says it's so 
fine, we should
form an alliance 
of all who claim 
our common name, 
and if you care 
to place a bet, 
I'll get to Nola, 
Italy, YET.

Premium Member Mistaken

I learned that a Brit will take offense if mistaken for an Australian,
and that Puerto Ricans take offense if mistaken for Mexican.
Canadians take offense if mistaken for American,
and Jamaicans take offense if mistaken for African.
Understandably, the great apes take offense when mistaken for human .

The Seas Off Puerto De La Cruz

Power 
Blue power
Atlantic oceans power

Impetus a million tons of water
Vast spray a haze of salty mist in the air
Three hundred yards of sea 

Iridescent rainbow in the bright sunlight
Withering pounding and crushing
Waves a thousand mile voyage

Relentless night and day
Past millenniums 
Millenniums to come

Premium Member Majestic Princess

A misty sky hovers over the bay
Awaiting the Majestic Princess
Suddenly appearing on the horizon
Like a garganuan beast plowing
Through frothy watery furrows,
Eager shopkeepers making ready
For bargain hunters their wares
Expensive doodads for souvenirs.

Premium Member Shadowy Figures

Shadowy figures reflected in the panes Framed with aloe and bougainvilleas, Unaware, they move furtively like spirits Dancing in another dimension of space, They whisper of happier times long ago When they were young and I was not here.
written November 15, 2021 in a Puerto Vallarta restaurant

Sleepy senoritas with the eyes on fire



Cause:


my great grandma was "Hispanic" (Puerto Rican), my slight tan will put me in that cast of ugly characters, 'Crayola American's' to be  shipped across the Mexican border, but I don't mind.

Premium Member Naked Feet

My naked feet slipping into the sand
Toes wriggling like tiny crabs scurrying
To safety while the tide rocks relentlessly
And seagulls swoop down to feast.

Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico
Have you survived the storm ?
The hurricanes the hurricanes
no mercy do they show.
We ask eternal question
what have we done wrong 
Don't blame yourselves,it's no ones fault
Nor punishment from God
Time and unforeseen occurance
I've learned be falls us all.
Prayers are the saving hope
Prayers for our souls.

Premium Member First Impressions

Couples chattering strange sounds Languages I do not understand. I see their meaning in their expressions Laughter and tears say more than words, Be careful not to make first impressions A single instrument does not make a band Remember Almond Joy looks like a Mounds.

Premium Member Two Young Lovers

Two young lovers on the beach unafraid To hold hands, nuzzling intimately, They are obviously very much in love In their own world they are muy contento In my country they would be ridiculed, Threatened, perhaps beaten to death Because they dare to be who they are.
