St Maarten

The island is very small
With a small mountain
And a small lake
Some small towns 
With small stores
Little houses with tiny balconies 
And miniature beaches
Where winter and summer are blended 
Exchanging their days and nights
Like the play of waves
You can ramble on it all in half a day
Only the setting sun is big
Like a giant bronze rooster
It doesn't want to leave 
Even for a night
This island of only two postmen
