Here in the tropics, Night falls suddenly No long drawn out twilight Sitting here surrounded by, Darkness and blackness. The only light shines from, A street light glimmering, Through the foliage,and The Fireflies small dots. Specks of light moving, About seemingly floating, In the torrid night air. Moving according to the, Whim of the insect.… Continue reading A tropical Night by Robin Bliss

Haiku: Tropical Fantasies
Sun rays, sea breezes; gold and blue fantasies, Twilight muse from clouds when evenings approach Noisy monkeys play beside the raffia palm forest

I wonder why it is called a tree
Yet she is dressed like a masquerade
With thorny arms raised to deliver a blow
And fins to wade thru a turbulent storm
Dangerous as she looks,
She is quietly harmless
Swerving from one wind to another
She enjoy the attention of the airs
When there is a heavy storm
She guides the little shrubs
When the sun shine bright
She takes also much heat
She stand, tall and fixated…
Breaking the wind surge
Wearing a grim apparition
One of piety and grace
She possesses queer tentacles
Which come as green leaves
Growing a shade of shadows
For every thing which seek refuge
The tree is both benevolent to man and wild
Dancing to the tune of both commanders
She gives her fruits as food and snack
And the leaves and barks are vegetables
So this person called the Palm
Is more than a tree.
In parts of lands below the Tropics
We can say she is part of the culture
