Want cuddle you up this puddled up morn
as raindrops TINK-ing ‘pon zinc roof top sound
like dreams DINK-ing in empty Milo tins.
Cozy; senses tingle from steel-pan* sounds
strummin’ like fingers, breaths stickle** on pins
drops titillate we up this Georgetown morn.
I stir; your moans drown, rain-coins TINK in tins
Thru sprawled windows breeze caresses our morn-
whispery touches pimple skin to sound.
You never cuddled to the sound of rainfall on a zinc-tin
roof one rain-season morning?
*steel pan (aka steel drum) – a West Indian percussion instrument made from oil drums
