Young nuns
frolic in the sea
Holy & jolly
on holiday
paddle & plash
habits hiked up
all squeals
& giggles
just like the other
young women
all bikinis
& minis,
Here, on their
day off
from God
they laugh
soak up splashed sunshine
the world
turned turquoise
azzure'd with blue.
The Heavens
miles above them
looking down on
their all too human antics.
