Caribbean Summer Love

My carribbean summer love Was Morning sun in the sand On the sweet Jamaican island Home of my mothers birth, land. As I got off the plane, I knew I was home. Warm winds blowing on my face. So, Gentle was the breeze "Lord have mercy", whats happening to me? I went, to my destination I walked, Down to the sea. The heart was filled with such glee, As sunshine, beamed down on me. My breakfast was filled, With fresh vegitation. Ground provisions of every kind. Fruits from every tropical tree, It was simply, devine. The sweetest fruit, I tasted. Wasn't a apple, plum or pear. It was a delicious mango, that even Adams, girlfriend, Eve would, not share. I had such, great meditation. It wasn't, on material things It was just the lovely feel of nature, blessing, my surroundings. The oceans mesmerizing, Blue Crystal skys, as clear as Can be. It was so magnificent & amazing, pure tranquility. My eyes could not believe. Lush green landscape, The sway, of coconut trees. Vibrant colours, red, yellow and green , flowers decorated, my scenery. The smell of the oceans breeze, just captivating I had to stop and ask GOD, is this heaven? As I continued, on my journey. The next stop was Dunns River falls, Streaming, from the river, into the ocean floor. I climbed each rock carefully, just in awe of this raw, natural beauty. Raindrops trinkling, the air so fresh & clean. I felt so free & alive, thought I was daydreaming Didnt need a watch, Roosters crowing Hourly, Tic toc, on the dot, as time briefly stopped. To marvel, at this creation. No scientist on earth, could ever top!! Later that evening, the moon lit my way, to where, I could hear Sweet Reggae music play. Everyone was dancing from soca, pop, to R&B. The rhythmic sounds all around, At a big beach party. I had jerk chicken, on the beach as fried fish was cooking near Deliciousness, filled the air Love was the atmosphere. Simple living, smiles always giving. No worries or cares, My Caribbean summer love true, Happiness, being there!! Contest. Summer Day Posted 6/17/13
