My Emotional Escape

Somewhere deep within my dreams on the distant shores, palm trees sway and sun shine beams; waves from ocean doors. Polynes’an beauties stroll barefoot on the sand; sea gulls wander on the shoal; ocean breeze at hand. This is but a reverie; only in my mind. Takes me there whenever be feeling so confined.
