Honeymoon In Mexico
written by: Thomas Park

Our Honeymoon, I and Honey
Afforded by timeshares
Some gave money
Plane trip over ocean blue
White caps
(Like distant fluffs of cotton)
To the resort, green, manicured
A building, event, for every purpose
10 restaurants or more, themed
Seafood, Mexican, Chinese
As we rubbed elbows with Europeans
Flown in from distant continent
We rested out on sandy beaches
Worries shortly past our reach
I was stubborn, you convinced
Horseback ride through tropic forest
Trees where chewing gum was grown
Cave with pool
Overhead birds spun
The staff on hand, brown-skinned,
Polite, walking quickly, washing hands
Blurs of motion to our sloth
“It’s a pleasure”, they would say
Speaking of Mass on week-end day
Brought us soup when illness hit
Your poor sore stomach, all a mess
The noodles may have not been quite right
Though in this case, good thoughts were meant
The highs and lows of Honeymoon
Like plane, all altitudes
Over soon
A big poetic inspiration is Philip Levine with his works that pay tribute to hard-working people. Thomas would like to follow in Mr. Levine's footsteps.
