Childhood Vacation of South East Asia

The tropical beaches of South East Asia eludes my mind,
energised by the blinding light of the sun.
My mind recalls family memories of breathtaking moments;
swimming beside my cousin by the shores of the sandy beach,
where aquatic creatures inhabit their own spaces in the seas of Asia.

The tall forests masked the clear blue sky, with striking sparks of lightening,
collided by moving leaves and branches of tropical forest trees,
melted by the heat of the sun.
Illuminated colours of wildlife inhabit the Philippines,
where sacred forests remain unscaved by urbanism.
Lands uninhabited by man's industrial evolution,
nature's soul of wonder.

The Philippines recalls to be the resting ground of my soul,
where my ancestors and close family ties grew my family tree.
Farmlands congregated by neighbours and families alike,
harvesting the crops for feasting and celebrating my arrival from home.
The baking pork beef drizzling and smelling like sweet fruits,
very nourishing, tasty and hard to forget, even the heat on my skin.
My familys favourite homemade barbeques.

Family vacations are remembered,
so I live on to travel freely, to make more memories with others.
The places where I have been, become the places where I belong.
Enjoy holidays of a lifetime.....
