Ancestral Ripples

Ancestral ripples infuse my mind
As I look out early morn.

Twilight luscious, Vermillion hued
The day anew reborn.

Frangipani scents the air
As mockingbirds serenade,

I love this land, where I was born
Where my roots were laid.

A menagerie of memories I have,
Pellucid, are the days.
