Road to Kandy

A flight of fancy to mystical land
in Arjun’ chariot I crossed Ram’s bridge
to that cinnamon isle of gold-grained strand
—tear of Mahabharata
 
On a palm-trellised beach I held her hand
where chattery-children with pearl studded smiles,
and names as long as the ribboned sands
nodded eager incomprehension
 
Elephant ride in an all-spiced grove
cardamom, mace and vanilla pod scented
healing balms of curry leaf and clove
for Ayurvedic remedies
 
Test of fate, far above sapphired sea
climbing up thru’ mahogany-hung hills
fellow flyers trust all to destiny
on that high road to Kandy

still tweaking......
