blue skies, bluer seas

blue skies,

bluer seas 

blue skies, bluer seas  

by Cassie Kinoshi

Blue skies
White clouds
Bluer seas 
White sea-foam
Coconut Palms 
Blue Mountains 
More 
Blue Mountains 
Soft shadows 
On the mountains 
Soft shadows 
Moving gently 

Cool breezes 
From the sea
White roads
Old women
Breaking stones 
By the roadside 
A truck 
Heavy laden
With bananas
Rounding the curve 
Of the white road 
Leaving dust 
And noise —
The once more 
The everlasting song 
Of the sea
