Singerisland

A lovely walk, a promenade leads the way Burnt orange succulents stand like bushes serene Crushed tepid deep, whitewash stirs up behind the scenes Delightful blends of blue sky in-between Entwined the seaweed branching out for a reach Finely tuned trumpet sounds of swoosh on the beach Glassy prisms beam through dark shades Horizon blended ocean, sky, behind palisades Intruders running 'round, sand in face Jelly fish glow and charm with grace Krutsinger Island, the sign reads Lover’s bed and breakfast needs Men and woman frolicking in the water Naked babies cry out with laughter Oceanic mammals creep by Palm trees, flowing, occupy Quietly recedes then tosses its sea Rentals, beachcombers welcome Surfers ride their boards for fun Tingling with a cooling breeze Umbrella of waves, high tides come and go Verdant colors make for radiant seascape Whales bellowing blow show Xanadu paradise plan your escape Yachting, sailing, tagging and more Zanzibar coastal getaway tours Written 5/24/22 Abecedarian Poetry Form Contest Hosted by Caren Krutsinger 2nd Place winner

So very clever, creative and utterly charming. Had a giggle at the way you wove Karen's name into your poem. Anaya, this is as delightful as a summer vacation at the shore. You have captured that spirit in your wonderful choice of images and words. Congratulations on your win! Many blessings to you!
