Hereby dedicated as promised to Kiwi, whom I have never met but who tickled me , like fish out of water. So prodded me to scribbling the following in jest I hope and pray that it makes you smile.I am sure you are a nice person who reaches out to others so I share this Gambian experience with Love in the air.
To Gambia With Love
At the Coconut Lodge
On the Atlantic coast
I sat waiting for sunset
Sluggishly it fell
As if afraid to plunge into the sea
A Luminous dial of fire
That reddish hue
Hung in the horizon
Displaying beauteous light galleries
Heralding the majestic descent
At this momentous moment
I heard a sweet gasp
At a peep
I sighted another beauty
So serene and so natural
A competition of rivals
Here ensued
I the judge
At a loss who to crown
Caught in the trance
I struggled to chose
Which of the twain I most have
Walking to her side
I joined her watch the radiance
That multicolored display of lights
A free show
For the Atlantic spectators
Attending the final rest
The Mighty sun in Atlantic sea
The show ends
But waits for another
To toast her though
I offered a single fruit
To top up her cocktail
The exotic Kiwi fruit
Complimented I hope
The displayed fruity salad
Beauty's meal for that evening
Holding hands
We sat waiting in silence
For twinkling stars
To take their turn
On the celestial stage
When they showed
We counted a million
But lost count as we kissed
On the rocks
By the Coconut Lodge
On that Great Atlantic coast
Oh blissful night
Filled with aromatic scents
Flowing from various flowery plants
Inflaming the romantic urge
Drunk and hungry for each other
We ambled to the lusty chambers
Oblivious of time passing by
Only the cock's crow
Heralding a new day brought us
Waking up
Still yearning for the return
Of yesterday

| I agree to Freddeīs comment. Any dance would be more sexy than this Swedish Folk Dance. |
