Destination

I have always enjoyed my solitude I still do But it is time to change my latitude and longitude A place like Hawaii will do Black sand beach Shimmering waves A place so far out of my reach This is what my soul craves I can no longer take this sky scraper haven It is time to spread my wings Fly away like a raven I need to hear the song the Hawaiian breeze sings To me this place could never get boring The beauty of these islands is amazing Snorkeling and exploring Under tropical sky at night star gazing For now this is just a dream but a dream that will be achieved New York will be a memory and long forgotten One day when I make it to my destination I know I got there because I believed Goodbye to the big apple that was rotten

Can I come too, James? I've always wanted to see Hawaii and I, too, am ready to "spread my wings" and hear "the Hawaiian breeze sing." The Big Apple is a fun place to visit, but I wouldn't enjoy the hectic lifestyle there. Give me a tropical sky any night. Love, Carolyn
