Tiles

One detail about St Croix I absolutely love is that every dwelling has tile floors. The tiles feel so good on my bare feet. They are neither too warm nor too cold. I feel so grounded on the tiles. The tiles are so practical and they are beautiful.

I love to see Margaret come over barefooted to clean. She sweeps the tiles and talks loudly to Gigi. She is always smiling. Her feet are flat and very pink from years of walking barefooted. Then she will mop the tiles and they dry with a dull luster.

The tiles never seem dirty. My feet stay clean. Thank you, Margaret.

I can’t wait to see the tiles.
