28 July 2011


While we while away an hour on the shady grass
Eating cheese-and-tomato sandwiches and talking to locals,
Tai does his usual trick, and falls asleep for lunchtime,
While Miro photographs him slumbering.

Later, he rides on Daddy's back up the mountain
And goes wildly happy in the volcanic mud at the Kauai beach,
Squealing and running through the cheeky whitewash,

And face frozen in wide-eyed terror
When Mummy takes him for a cleansing swim after.
