Dubai in mind

I wrote this a few weeks ago whilst sitting in a workshop in Kenya on the 13th of May this year funnily enough. Stu had accepted the position and the ball had begun to roll..

I imagine.
Thundering hooves and shifting sand,
a breath of air.
Artificial oasis’s upon
a dry and unforgiving land.

A woman laughs.
The chink of glasses raised in toast,
a successful delivery.
A well newly sunk
which will bring great hope.

I expect.
Searing outdoor heat and cool interiors,
a shopping mecca.
Cultures combined where
ladies dine in comfort with warriors.
