Good Lord. All this time, I've been spelling "Caribbean" wrong...oooops. LOL
Maybe I've had one too many tequilas....
Palm trees raise their heads and dare the storm to ruin their night: they dance on the wind of a hurricane, snapping their fronds to funky Caribbean beats, drinking refreshment pouring from the skies in great abundance. On occasion, one loses his bal ance, and falls to the floor ... TOO MUCH PARTY TIME, not enough sense to stay out of the rain.

If I'm ever caught in a hurricane again, I will always think of this poem! I particularly liked lines 7 to 9 (including "funky Caribbean beats.") When I first saw the title of the poem, I was expecting a wild drinking story, from someone's college days. :-) Joe

WOW!! Your old gray cells were working overtime to compose this little treat. Very good. Gotta love it.
Deputy Dave Jenkins sets out to find the murderer of the local high school principal, aided by a voice from the grave that is sometimes helpful and sometimes misleading.
"Murder isn't usually this funny."
Amazon reviewer
The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
