Member Poem

Rabat is a black pearl
  Of cellophanic rainbow
Gazing upon waves that curl
  And lick a shore little known.

Gibraltar is the dock
  Where it steadfast moors –
Enjoying sailboats that flock
  The Mediterranean course

Yet Barbary lions live
  Not far, in the Rif Mountains –
Golden, assertive –
  Their kasbah amid the grass.
