Ray Lucero Poems

Look busy Jesus is coming soon
To free you from strife and war
Did you think our sins immune?
Time to tally up your score
...

If I were to say “I love you”
How might you respond?
Would you be indifferent or kind?
Tell the truth…I won’t mind
...

Nothing gained of war, separation
Except dread, fear, angst, isolation
Helpful pursuit in such a situation
Admit we’re one big Global Nation
...

Winter cannot chill my ardent soul
Nor forest entrapped by icy glaze
Her smile is what makes me whole
Eyes that set my racing heart ablaze
...

Beach Boys song did have it right
'Wish they all could be California girls'
Daytime beaches and bars by night
No sifted pebbles to find these pearls
...

I reached for a towel to dry my hands
Out of the corner of one eye,
I saw a housefly walking on the floor,
In the far corner of the bathroom
...

Activate the "Pineal Gland"
In the middle of your brain
Learn secrets of the universe,
And why our planet is insane
...

Plants n’ insects await spring
Promised by a warming sun
Chipmunks chirp n’ robins sing
God looks on with admiration
...

Letter to a friend...

Nancy,
...

Long ago a prophet appeared,
A Piute Medicine Chief known as Wovoka.
