Caramel my camel
in name and in colour
soft, supple and sweet
flowers bloom like gardens on her back
the first of many
the original
the starter of a caravan
the mother of all camels
more than just a gift
she means the world to me
given to me by
my dearest cousin Fi
my camel is like my child
she has been well loved,
well-travelled and well hugged
