Lakay..

 Inhale the sweet aroma of fresh sugarcane chiseled with the machete, 
Savor the vibrancy
of  their smile,

 Overhear the 
crackling fortune of grilled corn...

Engage the explosion of the flavors and fragrances brewed in a demitasse de café, and
  
Contemplate the majesty

of the towering mountains which serves as a guardian to the millions that live 
in its 
shadows.

Close your eyes and see le drapeau Haitien ;
its effervescent blue and red.

Indigenous to the Taino,a haven for linguistic anthropology, 
it has harbored refuge for the 1st successful slave revolt in history,
la Perle des Antilles,

home to me.
