African muse
smoky as Abyssinian coffee
aged in a whisky barrel
her heart
dappled
by the tiger balm of summer,
Artemis dawns
komorebi
of my dappled lioness
sun lace
(komorebi, Japanese word for the soothing nature of sunlight filtering through tree leaves.)
lioness
roars in coffee mountains
echoes of Abyssinia

Love it John… I am on a month long sojourn from Casablanca to Cape Town… with a follow on trip to Victoria Falls…

That sounds like a dream sojourn! Sounds even better than going to Europe to me. I much prefer the tropics to Paris or London. Love the food and cultures of that part of the planet.
