*April 13, 1998, Ghana, West Africa.

Your tiny brick buildings
all bunched in a huge row
had such a mystique aglow
which many shall never know.
The narrow minded streets,
which graciously house such buildings,
are truly a wonderful sight
to eyes, which before, never seeing.

On your simply beautiful beaches,
which are the very threshold
of the great Mediterranean Sea,
lie divers shells for which one reaches.

Where the pubs are many,
and surely inside one of these
is always found with ease
a lovely woman, your attention she will steal.

You are altogether lovely--
a wonderful sight for new eyes
and such a grand experience.
Of Spain, you are most spectacular.

out of all of the bars, and joints she had to walk into mine!
Great Images, Sounds, and sensibilities. Love the airy sweet sound and roar of the waves.
Cheers
