Ode to Malta
Oh, Malta,
Sunny limestone rock,
Ochre landscape,
Glowing at sunset.
Oh, Malta,
No trees, no forests,
No mountains, no rivers,
Just buildings and sea.
Oh, Malta,
Blue, teal and turquoise,
Sunburn tourists,
Painful rocky beaches.
Oh, Malta,
Quaint old buildings,
Narrow bumpy pavements,
Rubbish on the street. More →
