A Day In My Life

Waking to the call to prayer near a Turkish mosque Blowing “bonjour” to passersby in chic, classy France Nibbling cheese on a snow-capped mountaintop in Switzerland Printing footsteps across the linen snow in Siberia Singing with the birds on the Mongolian grasslands Gathering simple smiles along a street in Indonesia Strutting past all the windows down Fifth Avenue Dancing with the pouring rain in the Amazon Inhaling the love swirling in the Darling Harbour breeze Planting kisses on the sparkling gems of Angola Tasting the spice-laced air in a crowded market of Morocco Leading a weary camel through the desert of Arabia Then near the end of the day I Wade across the Red Sea to catch The sunset on the golden Egyptian sand and Lay back to count the stars With my head against a date palm tree Somewhere in the silent darkness of Afghanistan.
