Paradise-Acrostic

PARADISE P alm trees swaying in a tropical breeze A bsolute beauty intoxicates, and frees me R adiant smiles on happy children's faces A s they gaze upon fading rainbows traces D oubt and fear are no longer paralyzing I nnocence reclaims it's place, all dreams realizing S pectacular sunrise and sunset every day E verlasting life's pleasures, coming our way!

Thanks Lin that's what I tried to do, acrostics do limit us when we want to say more.
