Our Paradise Island

Our destination is an island out there In an ocean of blue with sands so fair It has everything you would want on a paradise isle Scenery so beautiful you can't help but smile We set of from the pier in the Florida Keys Journeying down south going with the breeze Down to Panama via it's amazing canal Sailing into the moonlight me and my gal From ocean to ocean, Atlantic to the Pacific Through this engineering gem, just incredible, terrific The expanse we desire is within our sights Out past the horizon will be many our night With the waves we sailed to our yonder blue Amidst colouring skies of beautiful hue Whilst shapes from the deep shadow our course Through the waters they ease with effortless force Ahead in the distance we hear a thunderous crash Breakers of white in foamy strewn splash Sea birds aplenty in torpedo dive Their feeding frenzy for survival strive We anchor offshore in a lagoon so calm As we row to the shore viewing delightful palms Swaying in the breeze like a chorus of arms On this paradise island showing one of it's charms We settle into the evening in our new island home Sleeping into tomorrow around it's shores we will roam Living life to the full in this blissful surround Happiness in tranquillity around us abounds http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/life-11.php

Sounds like a wonderful trip to take by sailboat, James. It might be dangerous during hurricane season, but these waters are usually very calm and peaceful. It would be easy to put everyday cares behind you in such a place. Love, Carolyn
