Ray Lucero Poems

You jump start my heart dearest
Bring sunshine to a gloomy day
Your mine inspiration...
Though you live far away
...

There lives a white witch in the West
...

Night frost shimmers on lighted streets
Our hot breath billows white clouds
as marquis greets
...

Beloved Father/Mother God
Sacred are thy names
You dwell within us
Your Will is our will
...

“Love”…most noble of all words
Born of Light and God’s Intention
Sung sweet by Earth’s songbirds
With reverence, joy, celebration
...

Moonlight glistens on armored scales
Leathered wings power silent flight
Far below, unsuspecting victims graze
Ominous moon-shadow stalks greedily
...

Stale status-quo does seek to dump;
'Loose cannon' known as Trump,
For the audacity to speak raw-truth,
So...
...

(An excerpt from an email to a recent retiree)

“Retirement is about not scheduling things, rather allowing things to present themselves or unfold naturally. For someone that's used to routine this can be traumatic. Relax...and know that what needs to be done will be done by choice not time.
...

This Country prides itself on racial diversity
After many hard fought years for civil rights
Truth is there is still prejudice and antipathy
Race comes down to race for biased plebiscite
...

Scion shooters abound
Creating angst ‘n fear
Sanity gone aground
Change they engineer
...
