Lawrence Durrell

Lawrence Georgel Durrell,
Artist by default.
Wine fond Indian exile;
Read Cavafy and Miller
Enduring Pudding Island's taunt,
Nabob's sons are nothing;
Colonials indeed!
Ended up on Corfu

Determined to succeed.
Under Grecian gold and blue
Ripe with Poesy, Nancy and Count D,
Rosy fingered land with olive trees,
Enjoying candle lit talk.
Lawrence George Durrell,
lost in Buddist thought.
