Monkey Rock
Watching small fishing boats sail out
and extravagant super yachts sail in
Squinting in the bright morning sun
as dawn breaks and a new day begins
Sitting silent and still on the hillside
in prime position, and looking down
Commanding views over his kingdom
dominating our peaceful Turkish town
Admiring the stunning evening sunset
all its beauty reflected on the calm sea
Conquering the almighty Monkey Rock
sits majestic watching over you and me

Thanks very much for the likes and comments. This natural wonder deserves a much better tribute. Maybe I will revisit this poem when/if I can ever do it justice.
