Art nouveauist Emile Galle
with glass had plenty to say
Inscribed talking glass ver parlante
his poetic pals he did enchant
In the greens of Galle Face,
At the shores of Fort City,
All the waves say go,go,
To whom?
Beach morning glories,
stumbled on foot,crushed,
standing one together stronged,
on the shores of Galle face green!
