Cory Long Poet Tanka

My Retirement Place

LOVE crystal blue seas,
with snow covered sands,
dreaming of this place.

Grass skirts, necklaces,
pig roasts and coconut drinks.
Soaking up the rays,
hanging 10 and snorkeling,
a FUN place to retire at.

I'm sitting around the fire.
Speak of island legends,
take with me words of wisdom,
and POETRY of this land.



Fun and frolic contest
cory long
