It’s Poetry Friday, my favourite day of the week.

Last week I was lucky enough to have a holiday in Singapore, where I spent five days seeing amazing sights, eating amazing food, doing exciting things (some involving roller-coasters) and smiling a lot.

I came home with lots of memories and about a bajillion photos. I’ve been busy sorting through these and will be sharing some here on the blog in coming weeks. Of course, if I can combine a photo with a poem, even better.

So, here’s the first, based on this beauty I met face to face at the Singapore Zoo.

Today’s Poetry Friday roundup is hosted by Catherine at Reading to the Core. Head over there to see what other poetry goodies have been shared.
