Paradise

Turquoise clear water sweeps to my feet
Exotic fruit adventure leads excitement to eat
Hot coconut breeze and soft golden sand
Chanting magic with a Pina Colada to hand
Whispering slush as sea pulls in for nights rest
Songs of wildlife welcoming foreign guest
Tribal surroundings of palm trees and flames
Told stories of stars and mythical names
Becoming the culture dreaming away
Body will leave but soul will stay
