Heat, sun,
blue sea,
blue sea,
proud, irrepressible, ancient city,
dusty, peach-coloured buildings sprawling to the mountains
in a crowded maze of winding, narrow streets
and wide, arrow-straight boulevards
leading to beaches that are alive into the middle of the night,
proud churches, flamboyant fountains, grandiose sculptures
and a cathedral standing guard on an impossible perch
witness to it all
