florida palm trees
somewhere I stand
on a beach
white granules
wrap around base
blanketing me
from daily harm
with my wide fronds
I shade myself
from harmful rays
or thunderstorms
or even a
passing scared bird
that drops a gift
I'm a symbol
to travelers
welcoming them
to Sunshine State
great place for palms
