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.
Rapper, actor, singer, songwriter Bad Bunny:
a Latino performer who's making big money!
Dubbed the "King of Latin Trap",
he's clearly put Puerto Rico on the map!
orange and yellow
vivid hues predominate
in the tropic spring
anaranjado y amarillo
vividas tonalidades que predominan
la primavera tropical

When another year
Passes without getting
The striving results
Change totally life aspects
Future should improve someday

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.
Jim Horn
A little ‘taco’ we love to call ‘Nico’
Entered our school straight from Puerto Rico
Made out of old horse meat
Toppings of gopher feet
Our lunchtime sure did become a freak show

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.

Great Profound Poems By Gupta
Great poems by Gupta will fill each gap;
Prevent my poetry from being a mishap;
Many frustrations meet,
Reading Trump tweet;
As I lay writing with notebook on my lap.
Polished picture of me this should reveal,
While Puerto Rico suffers without a meal;
Open our door;
Give much more,
And an awful Jones Act they should repeal.
Jim Horn
A small Native tree frog that is found in the fields of Puerto Rico.
Its color is Brown. They are called Coqui by the onomatopoeia
sound mating call made by males.
When is raining , their sound is heard wide spread. Usually they can be founds
in the leaves of plantain and bananas. A song called Coqui® was sang by
the 1980's quintet called Menudo ®.

Puerto Rico has had a long and proud heritage.
A comedian said it was a "floating island of garbage".
Voiced during a rally for a presidential candidate;
this was a comment one can easily hate.
That certainly didn't get any laughs from me.
Such a remark was a political travesty.
This person should keep his mouth in a pucker.
That way, he won't sound like a dumb ________.
(fill in the blank)
from various news sources.
In the darkness of the night
I see your star shine bright
I hear the cries of our people
trying to be seen as equal
I feel your resilient heart
being torn apart
the desperation, indignation, exasperation
They insult us with their words
their ignorance, unconcern, and condemnation
but despite it all, we shall rise
and never compromise
The pure hearts that we share
The proud people of this nation
We shall overcome despite their laceration
En Mi Viejo San Juan!
*In My Old San Juan"
~I Just Dreamt~
Of an old, delicious flame
from Puerto Rico.
Strutting in his own unique,
Very sexy way.
Perfect hair, perfect suit.
Oh, he was just stunning.
Gliding, it seemed with his,
tall and oh, so perfect body.
His soft, dark skin too perfect
to describe.
His lips, tastier than the best
cotton candy!
Wonderful memories of you,
Rodolfo from San Juan!
Memories that are quite randy!

Caseworker: Yams and Plantain
Cabrini-Green Housing Project
Chicago
Bienvenido’s comin’ over,
says his wife,
to ‘splain me
why the kids
have got no rice,
no beans,
how the landlord’s
shovin’ notes beneath
the door again.
In Puerto Rico Bienvenido
dug up yams,
was paid in plantain,
came over here,
brought his wife,
then his kids.
First New York,
then Chicago,
gave up yams,
gave up plantain,
just to drum
and make a living.
