Malta is as everybody can agree
an island in the Mediterranean Sea.

Malta is a sight-seeing paradise
as a tourist might say.

Malta is 14° East and 36° South
as a navigator might say.

Malta is a fortress
as the many invaders might say.

Malta is English and Malti
as a linguist might say.

Malta is pastizzi and Kinnie
as a "gourmet" might say.

Malta is a dark prison
as Ulysses might say.

Malta is yellow and blue
as an artist might say.

Malta is wind and waves
as a musician might say.

Or... as the Maltese might say:
Malta is simply Malta, different though every day.
