Free From Harm

Happy birthday, dear Erica, 
I pray that you are free from harm; 
I hope you're safe in your area, 
With the help of God's loving arm.

A Dry Spell

Happy birthday, Sister Michelle, 
Unproductive is author's head; 
A writer goes through a dry spell, 
Yielding not what is expected.

Premium Member Barefoot in the Savannah

There once was a little boy from Trinidad
found barefoot in the Savannah mini-clad.
  He started on his quest
  in a ripped merino vest
but what adventures that little Trini had!

Trinidad and Tobago Christmas

When I think of Christmas
I think of sweet melody
Singing and dancing
Parang, Parang

Family gathering, great unity
Moving from house to house celebrating

Sharing and giving
Mama cooking
Everything finger liking

Premium Member Homage to Chris

My friend from Trinidad
has swagger like no other

Grew up drenched in music's rhythm
surrounded by storytelling musicians
who'd belt out proud social messages

To this day he lives and breathes music
Transports him to that soulful party place

Longings

I wish I could see Teresa
met her in Trinidad
She came from St Luzia 
Wore a flower in her hair
like women do in Hawaii 
I had lost my glasses
We looked under the bed
Her body was a temple
We worshipped that god 
At dawn we’re formal
She wore a fresh flower
In her hair

Premium Member Flag of My Fathers

Red is the red rum
and blooms of chaconia…
the Scarlet Ibis

Black is the black gold
and dark souls of the slave ships…
the pitch in the lake

White is the cricket
and old bones of lost Empire…
ghosts of Trinidad
