Sunday Ice Cream

I wrote this a long time ago... Maybe just started high-school. Reading it now... seems I've come quite a way. The events are fictional, but I still wanted to share...



Sunday Ice-cream

My daddy was the best daddy ever
always told me how much he loved me
He loved me, I knew, his eyes were his words
My daddy, to me, his eyes never lied

But daddy must have been a very nice man
Cause he loved the girl in the store
The girl on the bus, the one in the stall

He’d bring home the bread,
and he’d pay up the bills
Make sure I’d get my Sunday ice cream

Mummy left one day, and didn’t come back
Another girl, my braids would plat
She was the girl from the store, or was it the bus??
Or maybe the choir, or the ice cream truck

Yes that’s the one, the ice cream truck lady
I missed it then, didn’t quite hear his eyes talking
“lovely day isn’t it?”
“Oh, yes!!” she’d replied
he had turned back and winked…“I enjoyed last night!!”

Only in Dominica - The Corridor Physician

I was meant to have a small procedure at the hospital recently - which by the way was postponed. While waiting for the first four of what would turn out to be a six hour wait, one young woman came out of the ward dragging her drip stand, and shuffling down to sit near me, and about 4 other older women along the corridor.

She was apparently lactating, and had seriously soiled the front of her night dress since she, as she would explain, was not allowed to breast feed her baby. As she was sitting there, groaning and complaining, this is the conversation that ensued between herself, and the older women sitting there:

Older woman: "Girl... why you crying so? Ask de doctor to make you feed your chile!"

Patient: "I cannot. De doctor say is not good now."

Visiting woman: "Is true, depending on de tablet she taking, it can affect de chile."

Older woman: "But you not seeing is not a tablet she taking... is liquid she on!"
