so nice

try jazzing and spice. jamming up the dance floor,
buttering it down - just groove to the claves
sketching out sunny beach, sparkling sea.
seagulls crooning latin like the singer swaying and
sashaying her way around with the microphone.
lazy seabreeze and sundried beach towels flip flops
stretch out to yawn.

computer speakers sing and spit bossa nova,
sunny music beach and marimbas categorised under
My Music. painted this wonderland for you, walk through it
putting a smile on your face and a spring in your step.
cha cha to the beat of the wristwatch, counting down the
seconds to midnight. and archive this picture
of pleasure into one of those shelves on the wall.

pen and paper sit on the desktop in
pensive silence. clock ticks,
clock tocks. and the bossa nova plays on.
