She never liked Port of Spain. She lived in the central Trinidad an area called Warrenville. The bus route meandered through cane fields on those dusty afternoons she travelled home ftom work tired, but happy the weekend was hers to return home to her own five children left in the care of her mother and father
Such was her plight, an absconding husband, who deceided to go live with a woman who sang at calypso tents during the Carnival season. Her father had stretched out his arms to her. "Come back home, he said"
Use this as a challange she mused. It's not the end of the world, but rather you can make of it a parka for your soul, warming your consciousness to healing and growth. © gillena cox 2025

Blue Mood : A Fold Poem
When she left him, sadness reigned
Supreme, in every aspect of his being;
It's hard to say why, everytime it rained
He picked up his guitar, but never shed a tear;
Still, when she left him, sadness reigned;
Music can stir the soul in every way,
In every emotional state named,
Yet he choose the rain, to strum
Away those feelings, that to him pained
A heavy heart, heavier than a paint brush,
Truely when she left him, sadness reigned

Groundhog Day Haibun
Groundhog Day, February 2nd does not apply where i live. Here it's the dry season, and any groundhop sitings would have to be at a mas band camp, particularly a children's camp, where masquerade or as we trinis 🇹🇹 say mas costumes are in the making.
However where the weather transforms from winter to spring Groundhog day may be seen to many there as a marker for season change from winter to early spring or not.
If you don't believe that groundhogs can predict the weather, it can still be a fun time to enjoy some groundhog day jokes.:
What's the furriest side of a groundhog? The outside...
Why did the groundhog bring its watch to the bank? It wanted to save time...
When does a groundhog come before a woodchuck? In the dictionary...
Did you hear about the groundhog that drank invisible ink? It's still at the doctor waiting to be seen...
seasons and time zones -
the universality
of really good jokes
