Sweet 16

Kerry

Another boat ride.

In Thailand, in fact.

Celebratory moment.

Shhhh! Secrets, our pact!

 

Temples we visited,

Rubber jelly legs, so strange.

Drank beers, floating market,

Wait... He’s underage?

 

Spliffs are legal now,

Got moderately high.

Swam, luxuriated,

Tattoo day flew by.

 

A weekend to beat.

Nae bad for a boy

Who’s only 16

Mama’s love, pride and joy.
