Up before dawn, eyes wide with delight,
The mailboat's docked, ready to take flight.
Excited whispers as we board, so alive,
Nassau fades slowly, our summer dreams revive.
Chugging through the harbor, slow and sure,
Seagulls squawk and soar, the sea's allure.
Diesel fumes mix with salty air,
As the sun peeks out with a golden glare.
Onboard, voices murmur, stories are told,
Some rest on bunks, in cabins small and old.
A slam bam sandwich and soda in hand,
Hunger fades as the sea meets the land.

A Kindness in the Cold
In a world where winds are sharp as knives,
I walk a path where darkness thrives,
The ground beneath, a bed of ice,
Yet still, I try to be kind and nice.
The air is bitter, hearts are cold,
And kindness feels a tale retold,
A story whispered, lost to time,
In a world that turns on cruel rhyme.
But in this frost, I plant a seed,
Of warmth, of hope, of gentle deed,
A smile that breaks the winter’s hold,
A touch that turns the harsh to gold.
Vehicular traffic congestion in Nassau, Bahamas, has reached critical levels, particularly during peak hours. The roads become heavily congested at three major times of the day: the morning commute around 9 a.m. when residents travel to work and school, the afternoon period around 3 p.m. when schools dismiss and parents pick up their children, and the early evening rush hour around 5 p.m. when the workday ends. The continuous importation of vehicles into the country exacerbates this problem, leading to increasingly severe traffic jams on the island’s streets.
Years ago, Nassau underwent significant road improvements and the construction of new roads intended to alleviate traffic congestion. While these initiatives were initially effective, the rapid growth in the number of vehicles and urban development has since outpaced these improvements. Today, Nassau faces a more severe traffic situation, characterized by long delays, increased travel times, and heightened frustration among drivers.
This report aims to explore the causes of Nassau's traffic congestion, examine the consequences, and propose potential solutions to alleviate the problem. It will also consider how improved traffic flow could benefit Nassau in both the short and long term.
