Oasis
Oasis, hallowed site surrounded by sand,
Haven for ancient and modern nomadic band,
Like atoll in midst of ocean deep,
Much like port where ships quietly sleep.
A fertile patch of cornucopia delight,
Food and drink typical of a tropical site,
Offers time of grateful interlude,
Palm trees stand guard over solitude.
Green area amidst a frozen white landscape,
Desert’s balm of water and delicious palm dates,
Fertile parcel where lowly spirits soar,
Sanctum of peace from world’s strong uproar.
Beautiful as a lush green park by ocean beach,
Inn in the desert providing pleasant retreat,
Oasis for those in between ports,
Nature’s uppermost private resort.
