Young nuns <br />frolic in the sea <br /> <br />Holy & jolly <br />on holiday <br /> <br />paddle & plash <br />habits hiked up <br /> <br />all squeals <br />& giggles <br /> <br />just like the other <br />young women <br /> <br />all bikinis <br />& minis, <br /> <br />Here, on their <br />day off <br /> <br />from God <br /> <br />they laugh <br />soak up splashed sunshine <br /> <br />the world <br />turned turquoise <br /> <br />azzure'd with blue. <br /> <br />The Heavens <br />miles above them <br /> <br />looking down on <br />their all too human antics.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/surreal-penguins-for-lyn/
