Ray Lucero Poems

How can you know the depth
of my love for you Beloved?

How can you know my feelings
...

It was a cold spring morning.

During a walk at Oxbow Park
I ran across a reddish-brown
...

He went to sleep, did not waken
Died of congested heart of woe
Helped promote social activation
Using music, that humble hobo
...

A dear friend expressed concern about her role in the world, below is an excerpt from my response:


'I know what you mean about wanting to know the 'Big picture', so we can relax and enjoy life. I suppose that it's not that easy. All we really have is the moment, as the past is gone and the future's not here yet. The trick to all this is to enjoy any given moment, no matter what one is doing...not an easy task in the hubbub of the crazy world we live in.
...

True love between man and woman
Must be brave, indeed take a chance
Always been so, since time began
Reward to both is sweet romance
...

Roman Church slew Goddess divine
Replaced her with patriarchal rule
Plundered her sacred pagan shrines
With vile contempt, hatred, ridicule
...

Coat and mane as white as snow
Between its eyes a spiraled horn
Piercing blue eyes, a true albino
This creature known as Unicorn
...

"His number shall be 666"
"It causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark"

Scientists have developed a "Nano-Chip";
...

Face in the mirror is me
Face in the mirror is you
Time to awaken and see
Disunity is the key issue
...

Not a day goes by, I do not think of you
Sweet longing to restore romance anew
Memories etched within my heart 'n soul
Alas, to live as one, a shattered goal
...
