Soğan Sarmısak...
As the sun rose like a Turkish delight
The first swimmers flew into the sea
Tables and chairs empty
Plates lonely
A beach ball lost to the wind
Soon high noon
Then the warmth beneath their sandy feet
A quench of thirst
Brings laughter and cheer
Slamming a glass down
Filling their tummies with meat and fish
Cats encircling this feast
The red horizon yawning
A boat sleeping
But the party goes on
Till the morning crows
And the coffee is served with new light
