Lima, Peru



With such water to its west,
you forget that water
lies to the east of Lima too,
in the big bight of Chile-Peru.

The fun people have in Adelaide, Australia,
saying what they are: Adelaideans,
Adeladies and -laddies,
Layers of Adders, Adderlayers, Adelites;

is matched
by Limates, Limans, Limen and Limese;
Big White Beans, What Would You Likes
and Big Flat Whites.
