Vivid recollections vent up the upheaved faculty
One after another like panting charges on gallop,
Each painting a portrait of a postcard bounty
With reminiscences dearly putting time into a stop.
The excursion down the ever warm seaside Durban
Thrilling the sight with taxis booming with colour,
The evanescent beach awed sense with admiration
And ensuing trivialities which even now I honour.
The purple jacarandas enigmatic miniature boughs
Encompassing their sensual aroma rousing the nose
And conjuring imaginings of all things serendipitous
To take the minds-eye away from the rigidity of life.
Poignant embrasures are like a safe haven of thrill
To lock a mind in a time and place relishing the shrill.
