So it is there
So it is here
The blooming pinks
Adding delight
So there it's warming up
And here it is hot as usual
Different climes
Different reactions
Ever the same
The way nature sways
Her awe

Friends Debate Over...
So, do you want to?
I will let you have it, no problem,
The old fashioned clock on the wall stayed silent.
Should we do - rock paper scissors - then?
Oh please; say something! not with your eyes.
My coffee is cold, i shold not have sipped it.
I should have drank it more quickly.
Oh go on, you eat it!
The last cupcake is rightfully yours.
After all it is your birthday.

Quadrile - Enchant
Some enchanted word play,
A absorbs the S in sunlight,
To throw planet earth into
Deep darkness,
The kind where,
God has to come to the fore,
With his commands of enchantment,
"Let there be light"
And then the S in sunlight returns,
Happily.

Bright And Yellow
It was like any other morning
When i opened the front door
But this morning above a roof
Across the street
The Yellow Poui tree was in bloom
It was late March almost April
Hmm i said to myself
My friends in the colder climates
Are experiencing their season of Spring
And today three days into April it is
Bright and yellow

A Mermaids Gain
My mother a mermaid bless her fins,
Gave birth to me on a moonlit night at a traveller's inn,
There were scurrying feet,
And water boiled and drinks served neat,
She thrashed about for all the pain,
But smiled in the end for i was her gain.

[Just a mention: today is a public holiday here in Trinidad and Tobago, Shouter Baptist Liberation Day]
Option...
Here is one, here is another. Though they are found some distance apart, the lesisurely walk along Maracas Beach in new flip flops close the distance between finds.
The tiny shells we pick up are halved and empty and halfway buried in the sand. It is a fun pastime, though.
Chip chip is delicious when curried, so i have heard, time and time again, but i have never eaten this much talked about dish.
a nagging hunger
lets go to get bake and shark -
now all of us smile

Truth Be Told - A Fold
They never believe me, why oh why?
My twin sister she is pretty, confident
In the way she spreads her mighty lie,
Mischief and misinformation, she,
Scattering these seeds, why oh why?
Am i ever an existence sturdy and strong?
To bend under the weight of a fly?
Perhaps i am intangible,
Could that be the reason why?
They hate me like bitter medicine,
Consumes tall tales of my twin sister, why oh why?
