Island Breeze

I hear and see:
Hot pavement, 
Green house,
Boardwalk,
The sound of children's talk
The sun,
watching all the fun
Palm trees
Shifting in the breeze
Blue sky
Green leaves
Bougainvillea trees,
Red and vibrant
That's how you can tell you're on an island

I seem to have missed this one. Nice descriptions of an island scene - you make me envious for I've never been on a tropical island! But I have biked on the beach, at the Oregon coast... that's pretty fun :)

A new poem from the "Bull"! =D That's what I'm calling you now. Accept it. Embrace it. =) This was awesome! I love me some walks on the beach. Playful sounds of waves & smells of "bad for your body, good for your soul" food. Count me in! Nicely done!
