At The Balihi
Hotel
In front of the Balihi Hotel
the girls wear broadened smiles
silk
smooth on their shoulders
out the glass window
white waves break
along
the boardwalk
boulders stretch out to sea
like
fifteen foot fishing rods
the children smile
up at
me; and you
throw
the ball
into the
air
laugh their freedom cry
like seagulls
