A Very Sweet Dream Of Home

A Very Sweet Dream Of Home

 
 
As I turned out the light 
in my incredibly humid
hot bedroom 
for the last time 
on this magnificent island
I was kept awake
by the dripping 
of someone's
air-conditioning 
falling onto a pipe
that's been misplaced 
outside my window 
and as I lay there
annoyed about the slight disruption 
I reflect on the possibility 
that it's rain
rain cold, and welcome
drip, drip, drip
and just then, before I knew it
I was in my very own
sweet slumberbash.

The return of the slumberbash. Like the dripping air con morphing into rain. 🌷
