City of My Birth, Agleam

The jam of guitars floods a moonlit trail

    Dizzy where tangy hyacinths delight…

  Folks  prancing on rhumba beats to unveil

My city agleam...near a harbor bright.

Dance Me Into Delight

Rock me like a thunderbolt
Or simply let us drift away
Let the music give a jolt
Maybe make us dip and sway

Let the notes take us on over
To that place we crave to be
Twirl me 'round the dance floor lover
Spin me baby, two-step me!

So rock me like there's no tomorrow
Or hold me close and murmur sweet
We'll dance away our care and sorrow
Rhumba me right off my feet!

You Can Never Dance a Tango With a Mango

You Can Never Dance A Tango With A Mango


     You can never dance a Tango With a Mango

     And the Damson is a drama in the Jive.

     And the Grapefruit you can bet

     Has not done the Rhumba yet

     And that a Kumquat does the Foxtrot

     Is entirely false.

     The Samba when in season can be entirely pleasin’

     But the Mango cannot Tango or dance the Waltz.

Celebrating 50:Xiv

I hear mento music making night sweet
See women shuffling hips and light feet
Feel the rhumba box humming in my heart
Gombay grumbling breaks the bass apart
My soul surrenders to her salacious flute
And shakes like a maracca to contribute
To festive dance with toombah repeating
The bottle torch lits up the opague night
And fireflies come the years remembering
And they guided Tacky to that ancient fight
For patrimony and human rights to meet
Where Jamaica stands soveriegn above defeat.
