Hebert Logerie Poems

</></></></></>

Brother Jackson died a few moons ago. It is a loss.
It is a finale; it is the final curtain.
...

Our society is getting sicker,
More conservative, more liberal,
More outrageous, more difficult to handle,
And more ravaged by an elusive cancer.
...

(Poème dédié à mon ami, le Poète Luciano Benjamin)

Aujourd'hui est ton anniversaire,
Et celui des combats de Vertières,
...

(Dédié à Tous Les Papas, Birago I.Diop et à Gustave)

Mon papa était plus qu'un père,
Il était plus qu'un bon ami, plus qu'un frère.
...

Les lents et longs sons
Des violons
Les chansons
Des accordéons
...

You left
After death
Knocked at your door
No need to say more.
...

I thank you, Heavenly Father,
For having created me, as I am.
I also thank the Poet Bernard Dadi,
For his words that have strengthened and energized
...

Heureuse Comme l'Hirondelle

Heureux comme ce bel oiseau de la nature,
Qui trouve aisément sa nourriture.
...

I ponder, I wonder
This question almost drove me crazy
I was saved by a dream. I am a dreamer
I was told in Heaven, there is no blacky
...

If you are sad today, go back
To the last time you were happy
Turn the pages to find the funny
And the pretty faces that have cracked
...
