Chris Green Poet Rhyme

The Girl With Blue Aruba Eyes

~

She stood amidst the tropic breeze
the girl with blue Aruba eyes
Between the fruiting mango trees
neath pastel sunset shimmered skies

Meandering this summer’s eve
we stroll the shoreline hand in hand
Where lemongrass and grottos weave
and footprints wander in the sand

Alone this twilight paradise
as moonbeams glow on suntanned skin
Melodic turquoise waves entice
a seaside romance to begin

When here on dampened shore we kiss
my heart it beats in whispered sighs
Her beauty is my island bliss
the girl with blue Aruba eyes

~

Since it is winter, I thought I’d take a poetic trip to the tropics
Care to join me

Carolyn Devonshire January 12, 2020 at 11:59 AM Yes, Chris, a taste of the tropics is needed now, especially in colder climates. Your description of the girl's "Aruba" eyes is brilliant. I'm thinking they're the same color as the ocean in the Caribbean. Always a delight to read your work. Hugs, Carolyn Chris Green January 13, 2020 at 8:54 AM I think you are right my friend. Thank you so much Carolyn for your always kind comments on my work.

Evelyn Judy Buehler January 10, 2020 at 10:13 PM Exotically lovely, with imagery that is sensory delight. Thanks, Chris, for the trip to paradise, albeit brief. :=) Chris Green January 13, 2020 at 8:51 AM Thank you Evelyn for joining me on this tropical adventure. I am thrilled you enjoyed the trip. :)

Sandra Adams January 10, 2020 at 8:43 PM wow...lucky girl she is...but hey we can still join you on the adventure through your words...i'd pack my bags but it seems not much is needed for the tropics... what a gorgeous poem to end the evening and kick start the weekend.. it's going to be in the 60's here so it will feel tropical here at least, add your words and it will be just as steamy... Love this Chris... sigh.... hugs Chris Green January 13, 2020 at 8:50 AM You're right, not much is needed at all as long as you have someone you care about joining you on the trip. I am happy you decided to tag a long my friend. Can I get you a Pina Colalda or something? :) Thank you so very much Sandy.

Susan Woodrow January 10, 2020 at 5:46 PM Sure! Let's getaway from the cold...lovely title...blue Aruba sounds so cool. Well, if she doesn't make it you can always join the gal with brown Banaban eyes in a different part of the tropics...she loves mangoes too! Goodnight and warm dreams :)) Susan Woodrow January 13, 2020 at 12:07 PM haha no changing...just a plan B in case plan A doesn't pan out...or after plan A is complete! Have a great week :) Chris Green January 13, 2020 at 8:48 AM Brown Banaban eyes sure are tempting...I might just have to change my plans. :) Thanks so very much Susan.
