Summer

In summer the whole city is full of angels

as if there’s a nest of them nearby.

They materialise in the warmth of the sun

and mix themselves among the mortals.

They don’t wear their long, chaste dresses

of Christmas times but

from under their mini skirts

they show their long, brown legs

and under their colorful little tops

their bare breasts

unveiling their sexy naves.

Eagerly they try to attract

men of flesh and blood

longing for the feeling

of the arduous fires of human love

burning heavenly and

flying lovers to the paradise

that they never felt.

Afterwards you never know

whether she was a girl or an angel

because many of them

addicted to love

ask succesfully for asylum

all over the world

or stay for a hot winter.

About shibui

I am Dutch, 71 years young, married to a lovely Indonesian woman. Most of the time we are living in Bali. I am early retired as an educational psychologist and manager of social institutions. I have plenty of time now for old and new interests. I love serious stuff, like books about meditation or spirituality. But, "Why not", I asked myself, "More fun, exciting and humorous?" I hope to be able to share my interests with kindred people, to learn new things and get exciting ideas and inspiration.
