Tropical Love

Tropical Love Colorful petals, huge tender soft leaves, Intricate patterns, the type spiders weave. Gentle breezes, smelling the ocean salt, Embedded crystals where the surf may halt. Bright colored finches flocking through the air, Loud racket is heard from a hidden lair. Rainforest splendor, how precious it sings, Tropical colors on butterfly wings! Georges blossoms in an Edenic bay, Colorful orchids take my breath away. Gigantic geysers spraying in the air, Lava is flowing, too hot to be near. My passionate love, as we stop to rest, Relaxing in comfort against my chest. © Bjørn O. Wastvedt, 2017

Made a couple of minor changes to the second stanza - Still, probably not a perfect Sonnet - but for me, it is a cherished reminder of the Big Island of Hawaii :)
