Dave Tanguay Poems

Remembered

A nation born from war, for the “purpose” of establishing freedom
A nation divided in war, in an “attempt” to fulfill the goal of freedom
...

Twas in a restaurant they met,
Romeo and Juliet
He had no cash to pay the depth
So Rome-owed, what Julie-ate
...

Money! money! money! “who”, needs money?
Yeah right, - ask me another question honey-

From day one, - money rules our lives.
...

Poets, musicians, painters, sculptors, historians of all sorts,
Many express their feelings of war - in their work
...

I may not have the skip in my walk
Or the strength I once had as a lad.
However when I look at a star, it’s still
A discovery - I’ve yet! - To explain
...

Cherish each day as you go through life
...

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
...

With, television, movies, music, the internet and old
Fashion gossip
Where do the young find refuge to absorb all of this
High-tech?
...

Hurry! Hurry! Push and shove
No time to spare - for a little love

Be sure you do not arrive late for work
...

Another election coming around, politicians again are practicing
Their smile
They want our vote they’ll promise us the world will be at our
Command
...
