Whilst the Palms Sway
The palm lined beach of greens and browns
Foliage so lush in carpeted gown
Golden sands gently brush with the tides
Elements of two in caressing collide
Virgin white breakers hush their way in
Over aqua's and jade's, translucent ocean skins
Whilst cotton wool clouds overhead slide
Birds of many on the thermals they glide
Periodically dark shapes enter the scene
Rays of all sorts swim in tranquil serene
Out in the distance through the surface they dive
Terns and gannets in feed frenzy they strive
Whilst the palms sway on this island, this gem
This paradise lives and grows around them
Oh how I wish to witness this place
Maybe one day in the future I'll grace
