Located between Iran and Oman

The Strait of Hormuz is not straight

The Strait of Hormuz

Is the gate of Hormuz

To the Persian Gulf 

There is no booze allowed in Hormuz

No green is to be seen

Blue above and blue below and

Ochre all around in the Strait of Hormuz

Air conditioning is a blessing in Hormuz

It is a treat to beat the heat

In the Strait of Hormuz

Great ships pass by day and night in Hormuz

By day, the light is intense

In the Strait of Hormuz.

No birds, no bees, no trees

No shade in the Strait of Hormuz

The atmosphere is tense in Hormuz

Will there be peace, will there be war?

Cross your fingers and pray for peace

In the Strait of Hormuz.

I have never been in the Strait of Hormuz and have taken a poetic license. I welcome comment from anyone who knows the area.

Please see Strait of Hormuz
