Zanzibar

ZANZIBAR

Above Mt. Kilimanjaro
Shrouded in clouds
I descend on the mystical
Island of Zanzibar
A new age adventure
To look in the past
to contemplate the future
winding through the present
A collage a mirage of spices slaves
Pirates and explorers 
Babies wives fathers and mothers. . .

A nice image of the past flowing from the present
