POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Hi everyone. I'm an author from Jamaica. I write poems, short stories and songs.
A Song Of Love
We need a song of love for each and everyone,
A simple song that all nations can sing along.
One man could compose and sing this easy song,
But it would be better if we all sing it together.
So help me to write a melodious song of love,
And make the words come from within our hearts.
Let all interested singers play an active part.
And may the end be as pleasant as the start.
In every land and sea across the earth,
Sing stanzas of love and let your voices be heard.
May every one of us act in harmony with our song, ...

How You Should Love
For All Jamaicans
You talk a lot about love,
Write love poems to satisfy your heart,
Send love notes to the ones that you cherish,
And play love songs on the stereo.
But how strong is your love?
Is love only a scene in a motion picture?
How real is love to you?
You can make love universal.
Mere utterance of love doesn’t mean much.
Offer a helping hand today.
Be courteous and kind to others.
Hug a motherless child.
Treat it as though it were your own.
Do you really want to love?
Would you like to be...

My Last Breath
I’ve searched everywhere for a virtuous love,
Tried everything but couldn’t find it.
I thought such a love didn’t really exist.
And as I was about to call it a day,
I looked across the stage and saw you there,
A peri, beaming and playing the harp canorously.
I came to you with my last breath,
Knelt at your feet and begged for your love.
I saw compassion in your eyes,
I felt the willingness of your hands.
You bent down and coaxed me to get up.
I didn’t try to hide my tears.
You hushed me softly as a mother hush her child. ...

Supernatural Love
For Stacy-Ann
I miss your tenderness and your beautiful smile.
I cannot describe how painful it is to live without you.
How long will tears of sadness fall from my eyes?
My tears will fall until the day you come back to me.
The lonely years have not erased the memories,
And time increases the eagerness to repossess you.
You are in my thoughts every day and night.
Darling, you alone deserve my supernatural love.
I felt your affection from the moment you kissed me,
And I do not know how to stop loving you.
You...

A Copy Of You
Inspired by true events
Is there a copy of you somewhere else?
Yesterday I beheld an unbelievable event.
A woman in a black dress walked in late.
The scent of your favourite perfume instantly filled the hall.
I looked at her, and I literally saw you.
I was familiar with everything about that woman.
Her presence made me want to slip away from the meeting;
I just could not stay inside the building.
You may think I am insane, but I know what I saw.
I almost died from astonishment when she came closer.

She Doesn't Have to Know
For Sara
Should I let Sara know how I feel about her?
I want to win her heart, and I’m dying to be in her arms,
But I won’t say sweet words to entice her.
I wish I could be near her as often as possible,
But I can’t let her know that I care about her.
If I don’t talk to her, how else can I reach her heart?
She seems to be quite happy with her fiancé,
So I don’t want her wrapped in an eternal triangle.
I must prevent my lust for her from showing.
She may not understand how my love blaze for her.
I can hardly stand...

I'm Going To Meet Her At The Airport
I’m going to meet her at the airport in an hour.
I’ll get there early, no second-guessing.
I don’t care whether it’s a fair day in Acapulco or not,
I’m going on a trip with her, rain or shine.
She sounds so excited on the telephone.
I don’t want to miss my flight.
If I arrive late, it will ruin our vacation.
I’m going to take a shower and get dressed quickly.
Pick out a matching necktie for my shirt.
Thank you for the coffee,
But don’t serve the fairy cakes.
Check the bag for me;
See that everything is ready. ...

My Love Is Not From This World
Believe it or not, my love is not from this world.
It is a perfect love of extraterrestrial source.
My love is from an unknown place far away.
That is the simplest way I can describe my love.
I am the only human with a supernormal affection.
No man has ever loved a woman as I love you.
I love you with a love that is not from this world.
I have discovered a mysterious love inside me,
And up to now I do not fully understand it.
I can neither explain nor control this mystic entity.
This love has never affected anyone before. ...

Beneath The Mexican Moonlight
I recall the warm night beneath the Mexican moonlight.
It was there I lost my beautiful Spanish maiden.
We had planned to meet at the café earlier that evening,
But something went awfully wrong with our plan.
She might have had some other important engagement.
I was in love with her and so anxious to be with her.
It was almost midnight and there was still no sign of Maria,
So I left the cafeteria in sadness and headed for home.
Suddenly I heard the soft strumming of guitars,
And the song that was playing invigorated my heart. ...

That Same Old Familiar Line
After we dance, there’s a chance that you might want to spend a little more time with me.
So I’m trying to find some new words to say to you before the evening is through.
I’m thinking hard, but darling, even though I’m making my best effort,
I still can’t come up with something nicer than, “I love you.”
I hope you won’t mind me repeating that same old familiar line,
You know the one that so many happy people in love often say.
Darling, I know that when I get close to you, I’ll end up saying, “I love you.”
I want to tell you sweet words...

Lonely Weekend
Ma chérie, I am alone with thoughts of you tonight.
It is so cold and windy out here on deck,
And I wish that you were here to give me solace.
Joanna, I miss you every day of the week,
But there is something in a weekend that makes me miss you more than any other time.
I know it will not be long until I see you again,
But I am so impatient to be close to you.
I am spending another lonely weekend at sea.
I can barely grapple with the dreariness,
But I must endure the loneliness and keep my sanity.
I called you so I could hear your...

I Have To Let It Show
For Monique
When you first came here, I didn’t feel this way about you.
But as the weeks went by, my feelings for you began to change.
The face that meant so little to me before, now excites my heart.
A love that wasn’t there from the start is quickly growing.
My conscience tells me that it’s wrong to want your love,
But my emotion is stronger than my desire to do the right thing.
And if it’s a sin to love you, then I’ll face the consequence.
For your love is worth any price that I may have to pay.
In the late hours...
