Theme : Paradise
Pondolands’ Port St Johns
(In South Africa)
by Michael Knott

Hidden from the real world
Lies a small village of magic,
A secret African Garden of Eden
The most beautiful paradise in all the land.



Strikingly bold cliffs guard the grand entrance
Over the mighty Umzimvubu River,
Beaches made in Heaven carelessly flaunt
While rich tropical forests enchant and tease.

Colorful Xhosa women sell intricate baskets and beads
While friendly children collect avocado and nuts,
Fat cattle are free to roam sandy beaches
And Reggae smokers’ souls delight and excite.



A spiritual journey of epic surreal
An ancient world still surviving,
Untouched by this post-modern day
Still innocent, natural and mysterious.

Air so pure
Life is so still,
Peace and one
Heaven on Earth. 

May 6, 2007
