Dave Tanguay Poems

A child born in humble surroundings
Nurtured to manhood with his father’s blessings

God’s love for the world lay in his son the savior
...

Lord I ask you to deliver me from evil
Let me witness a great social upheaval

Where people in society turn to peace and love
...

As I looked up at the stars last night I reflected for a moment on us all as passengers aboard our planet earth. I put this little poem together.

The little blue ball hurling through space
A ball all put together by means of God’s grace
...

With, television, movies, music, the internet and old fashion gossip
Where do the young find refuge to absorb all of this high-tech?
Surely, with personal computers valuable information is gathered
With the help of the agency called gosip
...

Are you a workaholic, finding work as an escape?
On the other hand, a criminal - trying to beat the system,
You call a rat race.
...

Love can hurt, love can haunt, and love can be extremely cruel
Love can make us convert, make us want, and make us try
To live by the golden rule
...

I am not a credited doctor of child psychology, that is I do not hold a degree in this particular field. My only credentials for giving advice on child bearing is my own personal views based on the principals of common sense and most importantly inborn love
...

Strolling along - the city sidewalk,
I feel at awe, with such a peaceful flow - of travel.
Those I meet, will pause and smile,
Then soothe my soul, with gentle talk.

“Enlightenment is a passage of life, which determines the makings of a man or woman. It’s when one says “HELLO! ” to the world. In a language not yet completely fulfilled. This is where a charisma is detected.”

Leaving adolescence and embarking into manhood
A time in our lives when we are clearly understood
...

Our world of so many modern conveniences
We were born to accept, and have taken for granted
Allow us to live our lives with very little inconveniences
In our minds, a feeling of aid has been implanted
