Sunday Market at the Rocks
Colour jumps from the stalls
Handmade glass
Object d’art en masse
Two dreamers stroll
oblivious
with thoughts
of sunny, smile filled
days in a kitchen
filled with heady
spicy smells.
Tamil pickles,
salty, hot, whole limes
sets taste buds tingling
begging for a taste
of cooling water…
tempting,
Irresistible.
Time to leave
with quickening pace
through jostling crowds,
to catch a northbound train.
