Take Me To Turks: My Vacation Nation

this place, such a reprieve I am held without speech-- heaven's clouds Float aloft like white Foam Froth atop Fresh morning cappuccino my chamber, allows comfort obstructions lifted like air-- open Windows brush inside Wondrous Whispers of life the breath of a Wooden villa I step outside, more to find a path leading to artful vista-- my steps Collect tiny souvenirs grey Cobblestone Chaperones showing me the way to Caprice as I arrive, my dry eyes glass the ocean! same as my dreams-- a world of Boundless essence comforting me like Baby Blue's a salty spa for Bellicose angst I bend at the nape, a world above trees of palm, the kiss of the sun-- draping Leaves sway in the wind green canopies full of Lush Luster a tickle of heat petting at my Lips I never wish to leave, my sand oasis stone skin combed down to fluff-- memories Preserved on heart walls Precious Prose etched in them all a snow globe of beach'y Perfection Take me to Turks, let's fly Tonight! as my guest, you'll enjoy the spoils-- where oligarchies begin to Topple gasping at our Threshold, Tumbling wildly from their golden Thrones Take me to Turks, let's fly Tonight! for when I'm there-- I am King February 4, 2016
