Ode to the Royal Poinciana

Ode to the Royal Poinciana
In the heart of summer, across the Bahama Isles,
The Royal Poinciana stands, igniting the miles.
Your flaming red flowers, like a fire in bloom,
Paints the landscape, dispelling all gloom.
Stunning and rich, your flamboyant display,
Graces the islands, brightening the day.
Yet not just in red, but in hues of gold,
And orange too, your beauty unfolds.
Beneath your branches, the earth is adorned,
A carpet of petals, by the wind yet unscorned.
Sturdy you stand, against the strong breeze,
Living long through centuries, with timeless ease.

The Evolution and Impact of Radio Call-In Talk Shows in The Bahamas
Introduction
The broadcast landscape in The Bahamas underwent a significant transformation in 1992 when the Free National Movement (FNM), led by Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham, liberalized the airwaves. This pivotal change fostered a more inclusive and open media environment, allowing for the proliferation of radio call-in talk shows. These programs have become instrumental in promoting freedom of speech, engaging the public in democratic processes, and enriching Bahamian culture.

Current Off Again

Current Off Again
In the Bahamas, summer's here once more,
Old infrastructure groans, can't take the power load's roar.
Fan and A/C off, sweat pours like a fall,
No relief from the heat, no comfort at all.
Fanning myself with a folded news sheet,
Only makes me hotter, can't beat the heat.
Step outside for a breeze, but none's blowing by,
I want to shout curses at the unrelenting sky.
No more data on my phone, Wi-Fi's gone,
Feel like I've lost touch with the world, living in the dark ages, withdrawn.
Phone just died from flashlight's bright glow,
Can't charge it up, no power to show.

Tropic Eve
In a tranquil tropic's warm embrace,
A full moon rises with gentle grace.
Over a calm, still sea it gleams,
A paradise in summer's dreams.
Twinkling stars in the velvet night,
Moonlight's dance, so pure, so bright.
Reflecting off the sandy shore,
White grains gleam, they yearn for more.
Coconut trees in silent rows,
Flowers in bloom, the coastline glows.
A balmy breeze begins to play,
Clouds drift in a moonlit ballet.

Bahamas Goombay Summer Festival Fun
In the heart of summer's vibrant glow,
The Bahamas comes alive, you know,
With Goombay rhythms, a joyous spree,
A festival of rich history.
Since '71, a story began,
A celebration of this island land,
With culture deep and heritage bright,
The Goombay Summer Festival takes its flight.
Across the islands, it spreads its cheer,
From Nassau to Abaco, far and near,
Even Miami feels its beat,
As Bahamian culture fills the street.
