I Do Like It Here – 13th December 2025

Oh I do like it here

The air is so fresh

Especially by the waters edge

Where I can see each little

Fishy gazing back at me

I know that look

We’ve both seen some stuff

Haven’t we, little friend?

And let’s not pretend that

Travelling so far will help us forget

For I know I brought

Those memories with me

Packed in a case that I always carry

And how about you

On you swim through the most spectacular blue

Looking for food and

Hiding when hunted

I know you remember

Each random encounter

But today on this beach, we both

Choose to let go

Another poem about the beach and sea. Well, here is a picture of Dubai Creek. It’s not quite the same but it will do.
