My Beautiful Kenya
A nonchalant summers breeze seeps silent through a window
Left ajar
Carries soft memories scent of
Warm kenyan musk air
Which rests in a deep dark corner
Mind
Afar
Faint distant scratching of
Grasshoppers seranading
The cumbersome
Boa-bob tree
Which wavers gently
At the now noir sea...
As the tiny cream crabs rest their
Oh so suspicious eyes
Whilst there's still no peace for the wicked
Damn mosquitos
Fly
In my mind to the heavens door
Tiwi beach
Once stroked its soothing sand
Through my course
Comforted feet
And I know this place
Tis beautiful
My very just delight
By the Indian Ocean on a balcony
In the dead of the night x
