Paradise

Time to pack our suitcases and leave winter with the snow on the ground
The beaches of Waikiki await are arrival, soon to greet us with their warmth and tropical sounds
A lifetime of fond memories soon to be created and stored for all eternity
A relaxing week of fun and entertainment is now a virtual certainty
The colorful waters of the ocean lapping at the shore greet us as our feet hit the sand
Surfboarders ride with the waves with their sculptured bodies and beautiful tans
Tonight a luau is ours to partake in, an island feast with hula dancers swaying in the night breeze
Tropical drinks abound, and I am sure will go down with ease
After dinner, a stroll down the beach with the moonbeams lighting the way
A trip to paradise what an experience, I wish I could stay
If you need to get away I promise this is the place you want to be
A smorgasbord for your senses just wait and see
