Iced coffee with ice cream as a special treat for the long trek back to the mainland.
Murky waters and silted shores, the fragile wooden boats rock back and forth,
A visual lullaby.
Soulful music warms me inside
I think of home.
Mixed emotions- excitement, sadness, sex, adventure.
Perfect doll shoes on painted white bodies as my feet turn red and callused
The river way creates the streets and the stilted houses become my new home.
