Carrie Cox’s Corner

A Poem: A Wandering Glimpse of Fuengirola in Late Fall

11:45 am

A rain jacket

A cool breeze

The tide

Palm trees

New kinds of green birds that I have never seen before, making one gigantic nest in a palm tree

Blue Striped towels

Purple flowers growing wild against White House’s

Terracotta roofs

Quiet

Yard work

A highway by the sea

A lighthouse

Strong coffee

Amazing bread

Even better chocolate

Mopeds

Pedestrians

A gray horizon that blends in with the sea

Ash trays

Wicker chairs

Clothes hanging out to dry on every balcony and roof

Little Green bananas hanging on trees

Ripe oranges and lemons asking to be picked

Supermercados with fresh fruit and fresh dirty eggs

Small streets

No to go cups..you’re here to stay

Stuffed churros and chocolate

Kisses for hello

Kisses for goodbye

Mountains hidden by low hanging clouds

Donkey taxis

Trains

Siestas

Amigos

Familia

Buenos Tardes

Adios
