Tonytocaa Camacho Poem
Entwined
The color
Of mankind
Echoed in
Our minds
The Realities
Of life
Forevermore
The ethnic
Flow of
Our blood
Pulsating
Giving us life
Giving us hope
We were
Color blind
Or
Perhaps
The world
Didn't understand
The differnt
Shades of
Pastels
We were free
Of that kind of
Bondage
That brought
Many of us
To our knees
Even as you
Lay in my arms
Dying
While our church
Was ingulfed
In flames
Whispering to me
Be free my love
Be free
Lesser men would
Have gone mad
You see
But not I
I would not
succumb to
That kind of
Bondage..

Tonytocaa Camacho Poem
Brother brother
My brother
Mi Hermano
Man of La Mancha
Fat cat donning
A gray flannel suit
Slim shades
Fake alligator shoes
Brother brother
Mi Hermano
Sitting behind a desk
Making decisions
For erroneous reasons
brother with Spike words
Forked tongue
Strapped for freedom
To write abstract words
Words of wonder
From a latter day poet
Creative brother
for thy self
Mustering words of confusion
Into transformations
Detail lies and half truths
To abort friendship
Brother my brother
Mi Hermano
There is room
on this place
We call mother earth
Let the past be
The past
I extend my hand
And in ending this
I say
Alma con alma
Soul to soul
Honor and truth
Among men
Is here for
All..

Tonytocaa Camacho Poem
If ever a
Time
In a
Desolate
World
While
Moments
Gather
And dust
Subsides
Blanketing
This planet
Cumulus
Clouds
Converge
Colliding
And creating
Animal crackers
In air
Thus this
Time today
Awaiting
Tomorrow's
Love oh so..
Patiently

Tonytocaa Camacho Poem
Moonbeams tease
Sparkle
And shine
Worlds apart
Echoing
The
Words of many hearts
Lyrics strung together
Like beads
In
mellow moods
Of color a tapestry
In dance
Resonates
Friendship
In
Pastel
Jazz tones
Titillating
The
Palate of friends
And lovers
That knows no boundary
And is endless as the
Milky Way
above..

Tonytocaa Camacho Poem
El conjunto plena...
trio tumbao
aguas buenas
sueños arbolitos
sueños de pino
siempre unidos
la fuerza de mi padre
el sabor gitano
de mi madre
gritos del cacique
tierra de mi gente
Sangre de poeta
Luz de mi sol
Siempre en mi corazón
Borinquen soy
hoy y en las
mañanas..

Tonytocaa Camacho Poem
Bola de nieve
Triste boriken
Esperanza de tu
Regreso
De mar y cielo
Mi gente con Dios
Las palmas te
Llaman
Mi musica te canta
A tus playas tan divinas
Los altos del campo
Tamarindo chula
Caminos solo para ti
Nuestro amor
Tomando cafecito negro
Y sonando bajo sombra
De un pino
Bola de nieve
Recuerdos al pasado
En mi cielo de amor
Mi Dulce color
Una epoca en Los
Ayeres de hoy
Volveremos Otra vez
A mi Rincon
Mi India Borincana
Los bohios
De mi gente
Mi familia
Mi Puerto Rico
Tierra Mia..

Tonytocaa Camacho Poem
Don Coto's..
face smiles no more
Only in memory
Paving the way for others
with dreams and aspirations
Arriving at these shores
To prosper achieving those dreams
And hopes that our forefather set
So many years ago while the moon
Looked on :-) tides rolling in and out
like clock work fish dancing to the
Florescent harmony of the stillness
The trip took many months
With many risks,so coming to this point
This time this place..I think about
Don Coto's flag ship la 'Cocora'
Now a memory lingering on and on
She was sold for scrap years before
We now go sailing on planes with wings
Like the beautiful birds seen flying high
Driving Upwards by the warm thermals
Sailing past Ponce Deleon and old San Juan
Reminiscing through my past,leaving behind
Our companions never to be seen again
The fisherman of el Farro and Playa Santa
Putting our noses against the window
Of This flying machine
To see this brand-new world in its grandeur
I Dios mio,oh my god
a Cold blustery morning it was
We left the balmy Tradewinds in morning
As we exit the this flying Machine
And enter a new world
White flakes racing from out of nowhere
Hearing my uncle Pedro ,watch your step
Watch your step stopping every every few feet
Allowing the fluffs of white to enter my mouth
Flicking my tongue like el Coqui
In between chattering teeth
but a thought comes to mind
A sadness,accentuated by a harsh reality
A new way of life A new language
A brand new shiny culture
Our old home left behind and now a new land
Called Los Estados Unidos
The United States
mi Nuevo Mundo
Our new world
bless us all...
