You Know You’re on Eluthera When


You know you’re in

the carribean,

when there are

three cupboards

full of glasses:

tumblers,

juice glasses,

wine glasses,

margarita glasses,

water glasses.

And a total of six cups.


No need for heat here-

the sun and

warm hearts

provide it.


No need for coffee here

island time

no hurries

no worries

mon.


Just smiles

and open hearts.
