Teaching in the Tropics:
Tales from a Teacher in Kendari
Hugs in new shapes
Blue skies, sunny and biting
luggage heavy, neck pillow soft
I step to a land foreign to me
Embraced with warm smiles,
A warm soup to welcome,
a cold drink to shake hands
... a new door awakens​

Spice and love
This love new discovered,
looking at mirrors with small ripples.
I open my heart to new hands,
matching with their chili tongues.
I cry to miss,
I smile to the joys,
this temporary home I will treasure
