The Smell of Pie

The smell of coconut cream pie
is the fragrance of my island roots
the warm, toasted pallets
of golden tropical loveliness
blended in an ocean
of bubbling, creamy briskness
alongside shreds
of swimming coconuts
awaiting to throw
a tropical beach bash
on the white sand
at the surface of my stomach!
