Poems
Sep 2010
Sea of Smiles
the sun is at its zenith
blazing down
from an unsullied sky
baking the black sand
beneath my feet
so hot it burns
a strong onshore wind
is chasing luminous white horses
across the surface
of a deep indigo sea
leaving their salty touch
on my skin as it passes
a melody gamelans and drums
gongs and cymbals
laughter and chatter
ripples around me
and the song of an ice cream seller
is making my mouth water
I turn my gaze towards the heavens
watching the kites
write their poetry
in the sky
as they float high above
our sea of sea of smiles
