THE RAJ & THE ROSE 37,000 ft Across Europa we ... - damowords

The Raja of Soonda surrendred all.
Cocktails at the Cafe del Mar,
Shark meat at Palolem
The beach, the bar, the Greek guitar,
The sweet peace at Patnem,
The cosmpolotania, life's cool creme de la creme.
Gokarna
There is a cliff like the Cinque Terra,
Tho not as sheer, a place where boatmen ply
Their lazy trade, a hint of Kerala,
An island that the Hindus sacrify;
Gokarnan days
Passing the time away,
In hedonistic haze & sunformed splashful play.
She was a lass from Lancashire
Where the misty days all grey,
& came to see the area
Where the sacred saddus pray
There she fell in love forever
As angel-dolphins play
& British winter pass´d in scenes so nice
A beach so aptly named, twas Paradise.
Crossing hot sand, hacking thick hedge,
Jumping thro jungle green,
Tip-toed the ledge-lean clifftop edge,
Swimming thro currents mean,
Then lazing in the shady huts, life's coastal limosine.
