Mike Gentile Poet Rhyme

Sway

Oh, to sway in a hammock of palm
     Glistening in sunlight from our nearest star
Surrounded by trios of succulent mango
     Heeding the beat of a jungle psalm 

Oh, to rock in a cradle of cotton
     Tinted by prism of rainbow delight
Regaled by the whispers of breezy blue rivers
     Bedeviled by nothing, all troubles forgotten
