PUPPY LOVE BY THE STREAM

 

To my dearest Sweetheart,

my dearest beloved,

my one and only true love;

 

I sit here in a cold desert of frozen water

reminiscing about memorable times.

 

My body is shivering

from being miles apart;

but it is not the weather that is making me cold.

 

How I do miss your angelic warmth,

Of being wrapped up in your soothing heart.

 

In the fetal position

I seek a safe domain inside your thoughtful brain.

 

If you only knew

my deep deep sorrow,

I miss your sweet sweet sting of amorous arrows.

 

Cupid seems to be very busy this year?

 

Your burning flames race through my veins.

Your passionate fire consumes my flesh.

I need the deep deep pain of loving you.

 

Just the memory alone of your generous affections

Is worth more than ten thousand naked virgins

singing in the rain.

 

Objects of insane lust

cannot break our love-trust.

 

Super models

will never sit in your saddle.

 

Center folds,

my love for you will not be sold.

 

Movie stars

need not apply;

for the comfort position, they don’t qualify.

 

Go-Go dancers

will be left with their cold dancing poles,

for on your love I am completely sold.

 

As I lay in your virtual arms,

with my head betwixt your tender breast,

I recall all our fond memories together,

while wrapped in your oozing blanket

of love and tranquil peace.

 

With your heavenly warmth all around me,

enshrouding my soul in Cupid’s amorist cave.

I relive with your avatar

All the unforgettable times we shared.

For I am yours now and forever.

 

I sincerely hope you will be mine till the end of time.

 

Oh Jamaica,

I sure do love you.

BLISSFUL LOVE:

Under the generous equator

the Caribbean Sea gave birth to the Rock,

pushed out of her clear blue-green womb.

 

The understanding sea

gave birth to Jam-Rock millions of years ago

after it rested a bit in the abyss,

to gather her thick blanket of limestone.

 

Arawaks and Tainos seduced by her affections,

Journeyed from the southern continent,

to fall in love with our small little earthly heaven,

and then stayed.

 

Jews running from France, Portugal, and Spain,

seek refuge in Jam-down’s domain.

 

Found understanding

In the bosom of a mother they could honour.

 

They were welcomed

with wide open arms in Xaymaica.

So they set up tent,

stayed awhile and rested.

 

Land of rivers, wood and water

is the slogan of our Clan.

The beautiful hills and valleys

which seems to be a part of God’s plans.

For our beloved land loves runners,

and running like a “Bolt” of lighting is our Creed.

 

JA was

christened Colony of Santiago in 1494

under Spanish rule;

then reborn as Jamaica in 1655

under British schools.

 

In the Garden Parish of St. Ann

is an unknown place called River Head.

Where the palm trees that are not really trees

dance to the rhythms of the winds.

 

The sun wakes up early in the morning

while all the flora wears a heavy dew drops coat.

The red soil satisfies its thirst

with generous donations

from the white curtain’s purse.

 

The emerald green parrots

argue about the state of affairs

while the Frogs and Toads scold the timid cold,

from Bromeliads in the trees’ tops

in the cool early morning breeze blowing bold.

 

Down a very steep hill,

but short still,

is a bottomless enormous hole.

The locals call “Blue Hole.”

It is what gives the village its name.

 

Cold fresh water bubbles up from underground

to collect in this natural reservoir,

with towering cylindrical limestone walls.

 

The water overflows its natural container

spilling over the lips of Mother Nature’s cistern

to form a small little river.

 

It twists and turns through wood,

Bamboo, and vines like a snake.

To spill its contents into a lake,

where Cranes and Sea Gulls seem to roam in packs.

 

But it is at the river’s head

where the tall grass grows,

and guava trees seem to move in herds.

 

It was there that

I met my first love,

It would seem

our puppy love was born by the stream.

 

For some unknown reason

it was the season of love

in an island without reason for any seasons.

 

My “First Sweetheart,”

lassoed my heart

with her invisible rope

without rhyme

or reason it would seem.

 

But she was pleasantly playful

which seem to take on a little more meaning

in Valentine with no season.

We romped and laughed,

giggled and frolicked in the tall grass by the river.

 

We had no idea of what we were doing,

while powerful forces laying dormant:

Pulled us.

Moved us.

 

Like puppets in love

skylarking to ballads,

or marionettes attached to emotional strings

dancing a graceful ballet.

 

We were two butterflies blown to and fro,

being forced by the winds of providence,

with gusts and swirls until being caught in a web,

beaded with sticky gobs of love pearls.

 

We discerned with innocent minds

that people who had these nameless feelings

spend a lot of time in special magical places.

Where children seem to appear out of thin air,

in the same sacred places built for two.

 

So,

we equally concurred to play:

house,

husband,

and wife.

Cause this is what special people

in the village seem to do.

 

We asked each other

if we could take a peek

at the personal secrets we all keep.

 

For curiosity sake

I showed her mine,

then she reciprocated in good time.

 

With silly little grins,

and lofty erected chins;

we were happy as playful kittens,

with paws full of newly found infatuated yarn.

 

All that was needed

was a simple prick

as we pressed our lips for our first pretend kiss,

for puppy love was born by the stream.

 

We knew nothing!

But it was the best of everything,

in the age of innocence!

 

May the almighty God

curse one and all

unwanted evil guests to this dimension of innocence.

 

With a thousand curses,

For those who dare to take advantage

of this tender age wrapped in blissfulness.

 

To destroy the lives of babies,

and their children’s children.

Which is simple murder of an innocent soul!

 

There are lines

which should not be crossed for any reasons.

For those who think all rules and taboos,

were made to be broken in any seasons.

 

Oh Jamaica

I truly love you

My first love

My first pretend kiss

Please say you will wait to be mine.

   

PARADISE LOST:

Two miles from “Blue Hole,”

past the same lake at the end of the snaking river,

is the lush full Fern Gully.

 

Fern Gully,

Is more than a Disney creation,

It exists in Jamaica still,

as it did before my story ever began.

 

Close by where the next part

of the story takes place,

and before you reach Ochi Rios,

is Dunn’s River Falls.

 

It is where paradise calls,

and lovers seek true grace.

It is like a miniature Niagara Falls.

 

While Niagara Falls

is like an beautiful exotic woman,

caged on a pedestal.

 

She is to be looked at,

and not to be touched.

She is dangerous.

She is unreachable,

for mere mortal folks like us.

 

But Dunn’s River falls is:

Accessible,

Beautiful,

Like an exotic woman who loves you back.

 

You can touch her,

feel her wetness,

be subdued by her seduction,

frolic and play with her,

talk to her and fall in love with her forever,

while her emotions race by your feet.

 

Dunn’s River Falls essence originates

high in the hills of JA,

where abundant painful tears of the island collect,

then flow down to caress rocky steps

laid out by God in a Zen garden;

then empty below

into the welcoming Caribbean Sea,

after creeping through the white sandy beach.

 

At an undisclosed place in this Nirvana Grove,

is a small natural room for two

in Jam-Dung’s Garden of Eden,

Dunn’s River Falls.

 

It was there that maturing souls

who were coming of age

checked into nature’s secret room for two.

 

The aura about the place

was like the time we spent at the river’s head,

in the tall grass by the river.

 

My heart was impregnated with the same feelings

when we shared puppy love by the river.

But now the small seed

she planted so many years ago

had grown to its full trimester

and ready to overflow.

 

The powerful forces that were sleeping,

were now starting to awaken.

To compel us to partake

of long overdue ecstasy.

 

She was still a ball of innocence,

enveloped by womanly flesh.

Her deep brown eyes,

still sparkling above an inviting long smile.

 

Yes, I do love her still!

 

Her lips had developed into blood engorge desires

that wrapped her seductive words with a smile.

 

Where my betroth had coastal plains,

now grew blue mountains

which were capped with snow peaks.

 

She was so so fine,

her twins were very steep,

the greatest gradient in my mind’s eye

and they were all mine

according to the secret covenant we keep.

 

A healthy helping of flesh was wrapped around her

female treasure-chest.

 

She had lovely child-bearing hips,

and her symbol of beauty was well endowed.

 

A pretty cocked bumper

that formed a comfortable pillow

on the sandy ground.

 

Filling the air with her womanly spells,

was her smooth dark skin,

that God carefully placed around her valleys and hills,

while tightly hugging the turns.

 

We had waited a long time

for this moment of no return,

enduring much self-sacrifice.

 

During the dark ages,

when we sat in cages throughout

silent lonely nights chained in chastity.

 

Her blooming pink rose was locked up tight,

her enticing butterfly never spreading its wings,

and learning how to fly:

Wanting

Desiring

 

But, wet dreams of her most beloved,

which is not a real solution

kept the tsunami of emotions at bay

while enshrouded by shackles of abstinence.

 

A gentle touch with naughty whisperings,

to make her slightly tingle

like small bells at Christmas time.

 

Invoking pleasant memories

is always a good catalyst,

to speed up the reaction

of biological love chemicals.

 

With gentle curiosity

I bowed to my beloved Nubian Queen

for favours I did not seem to deserve.

 

Consumed by her eyes

devouring my soul.

I stole a real kiss

from her tender lips.

 

She said:

“touch me there.”

Which produced a spark,

and lit a small flickering flame.

 

That Grew,

and Grew!

 

She said:

“please touch me here

then kiss me there.”

 

Thus, what was warm became hot

as the fire of love exploding into raging flames,

and consuming all doubts.

 

That us two,

stealing love under the moonlit sky,

was made to be one

now and forever.

 

She anchored her claws into my wet naked back.

Mesmerized by her glossy eyes,

pulling me into her paradise.

 

I tried to speak,

but could only scream

mad passionate mumbo jumbo.

Meaningless strings of words

encapsulating her name.

 

We shared ourselves to all we were giving.

 

She opened up her beautiful butterfly wings,

and heaved me in

to her lustful valley.

 

To prance about her Fern Gully,

with gentle streams,

percolating springs,

and a teardrop island it would seem.

 

Invisible pheromones

had laid out a reliable path of fate,

a treasure map

to travel on,

and be lead to her female treasure-chest.

 

Where X marked the spot!

Welcome to the Garden of Eden.

When you enter here,

you enter heaven.

 

With amalgamated minds

and spirits mingled.

We pressed our sweet sweaty lips,

and souls together for a deep passionate kiss.

 

Blue Mountain erupted into dawn,

then it was gone!

 

Paradise was lost,

at a cost of shedding the veil of innocence.

The time had come

to leave the garden as man and wife.

For this moment in life’s journey was done.

 

Oh Jamaica

I truly love you

My first love.

My first kiss.

With paradise lost,

pledge yourself to me forever.

With my soul as my pen

my spirit as my ink,

and my heart as the paper I write upon.

I laid down these few humble lines

for the legacy of the love we share.

 

I have laughed with you.

I have cried with you.

I have loved with you.

 

I entered your mind

and looked through your eyes.

Dared to step in your footsteps

and walked beside you down life journey.

 

To become you in a small moment in time.

To understand your essence,

and receive the message you are sharing.

 

With the flakes of stars falling

upon the frozen tundra.

I nestle like a warm puppy

amongst your imaginary breast.

 

To ward off the frigid cold

with warming reassurance

that you feel the same,

In loving me.

 

Now I lay down my head to go to sleep,

to dream of our small bit of heaven

down there in Paradise.

 

Oh Jamaica,

as I call out your affectionate names.

 

Xaymaica

Colony of Santiago

Rock

Jam Rock

Jam Down

Jam Dung

JA, I still Love you.
