Jakarta's dawn, a blessing I did find,
In every corner, peace for heart and mind.
A schoolgirl slumbered, on the bus so early,
A husband's kiss, a love so sweet and pearly.

Beneath the sun, a fiery, midday glare,
Love bloomed anew, in Jakarta's air.
A mother waited, at the schoolyard gate,
A child's kind heart, sealed a friend's sweet fate.

As evening fell, and brakes began to squeal,
Comfort I found, in Jakarta's gentle reel.
Road workers paused, hats removed with grace,
A simple meal, in this bustling space.

Hope filled the air, with each setting sun,
A new tomorrow, for everyone.
I gazed beyond, my own bell jar's gleam,
Longing to flee, to escape this scene.
Jakarta, July 2018.
