My Pacific Ocean Island

There is an island In the Pacific ocean Surrounded by blues In various motions The blue of the water Reflects from the sky Turquoise and dark Either makes me sigh With mountains of lush green In sloping canvas Varieties aplenty Trees and grasses Species so different Grace this land Where they have thrived for years As it has never been manned Golden beaches Glitter her coast Where the blue waves caress Its where i sigh the most Coconut palm trees Figs, berries and roots In glorious harvest Natures fine fruits Please close your eyes And join me there As you open your eyes All you can do is stare Where is this island Do you all want to hear Its in the Pacific Ocean Oh how i wish i was near http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/nature-6.php

The wind chill here is -16 and your poem took some of the chill out of the air! Thank you for your comments on my poem "Lessons". It's been too long since I've been here, to many things going on, and looks like we are going to have to move, so packing during the holidays will keep me busy, please don't forget me, I will be in and out as I can. Love you all, Trudy

Sounds intriguing to join you there. Would that be close to California or Japan? Keep the creative and magical pen flowing. Sara

Hawaii. That's the island this made me think of and the only one I had a chance to go to. Which one did you have in mind? Very nice write, James. It was easy to picture the beauty of the island. Thanks for sharing and best wishes, Caroline.

It is always such a pleasure to read your descriptive writes. They never disappoint and allow me to visit somewhere else for a while.

What an exotic paradise you describe, James! South Pacific" is one of my favorite plays and it is set near the island of Bali, quite a lovely place. (Check out the tune "Bali Hai" on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81NROmUb7o0 It's enchanting and the video is great too.) This is the type of place about which I often dream of spending the rest of my life in tune with nature. Excellent! Love you, Carolyn
