Array ( [sid] => 176296 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Cape Town.... [time] => 2013-06-13 20:21:37 [hometext] => I'm not a born Capetonion but I love the Mother City I lived there for 22 years. for those who don't know the Mother City is Cape Town in South Africa [bodytext] => 27:05:2013....

The beauty of Capetown.
Always lifts you when you're down.
The sight of Table Mountain.
Stirs feeling that bursts out of you like a fountain.
Strolling along the beach.
Shaw lines so white it looks as if it was bleached.
In the distance the sun is rising.
Its warm rays are so enticing.
Beckoning you to come.
But you just watch it rise as you sip on your Rum.
They say Capetown is like a baby.
That could be true maybe.
Sometime the winds howl.
And the weather is just foul.
Other times it's raining and wet.
And floods are actually a real threat.
Then there are times when the sun shines.
Oh yes these are the joyful times.
So all in all you see.
In no uncertain terms let me tell thee.
Capetown may be like a baby.
But it owns my heart that's no maybe.
