Bali

Eyes shining so bright,
Mouth smiling so wide,
You are excited, so excited,
You are going to Bali.
The place fills your heart with glory, love and passion.
All the wonderful beaches, mango juice dripping off your elbow,
Colourful kites prancing high in the sky,
Dancing girls in beautiful dresses,
Exciting rides at Waterbom Park,
Daring challenges up in the trees.
What seems like a minute later, you are leaving Bali,
Leaving Bali forever.
Packing a suitcase is not only happy, but sad as well.
Back home, you're greeted by the familiar smell of roast chicken on the table,
You like it, but you like Bali more.
