Jakarta, Indonesia, South East Asia.... Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

Jakarta, Indonesia, South East Asia....

Rating: 5.0


JAKARTA, Indonesia, South East Asia

The Jakarta Fair
just a name for this day market
full of eats, games and toys
my dear Mum used to take me
included the little boys
of our good neighbour

My beloved Mum resided
in the same grand megacity
as that Jakarta Fair
in fact an annual celebration
for all Jakarta citizens

my Mum as a war victim
mentally
becomes excited
each time Jakarta arranges its Fair
I remember the happy air
the fruits of my dear Mum´s glare....

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Every Year at the same time and at the same place (in JAKARTA)
this Jakarta Fair is built grandest and for many weeks (months)
visitors may walk here, enjoy here for as many hours as they like, till the Fair will be closed at midnight. I am not sure whether this
" Day Market " (luxury) is still built nowadays.
