In The Press
Island Song
from A Boomer, There and Back
The sea slapping
softly the sides
of small boats
moves them in
in a limbo-like tug
upon their ropes,
the afternoon breeze
hums a shameless
song of seduction
before a sugar-white shore,
as calming as a woodwind
in alluring voice,
and as rhythmic as any island drum,
setting the stage for an afternoon
of soulful dance and carnival,
but only to those who can hear its song,
and only on an afternoon like this,
and only on St. Martin,
and a thousand other island beaches like it.
Unwinding on the beach, Philipsburg, St. Maarten. 3-1-2017. Adrian Kerley©
