For Taunya L P-R
For your Himalayan Singing Bowl retreat stood neat.
For you gifted five eager souls, sheer enjoyable flight -
For your expense paid treat gave me first time visit,
And I, on friendly shores of my mother's birth, rejoiced.
Our aircraft desked in red, yellow, blue, and white,
The Island of Jamaica showered us with welcome signs.
Thank you!
St Ann's Bay of our stay showed prancing peacocks.
Qui gong on sculped lawn by the pool at dawn,
We stood adorned in soft white.
Such picturesque view of water, sky, and trees,
We savored graciously served meals.
Our Masseuse' full body massage floated me on a cloud,
Soon we enjoyed harmony of individual bowls -
You, "Mama T" patiently led us in symphony.
In stillness, we perked with treat of your lead bowl.
Thank you!
Bob Marley's mausoleum up at "9 Miles",
His humble childhood abode,
Ocho Rios, Dunns' River Falls,
Small colorful fishes swarming as we swam,
We basked in shade of tropic trees,
And we jet skied with warm breeze.
Such expense paid retreat remains neater than neat.
Thank you!
Returning to my quiet studio on Manhattan West,
I often envision the artist residing in you -
Such smooth share of therapeutic moments as gift,
Who would resist?
Bless you!
