Tropical Paradise

Birds doth fly above the sky,
flowers fair and nigh;
as the sun comes shining by,
wet white sand to dry.

Soft the breeze from gentlest seas,
sweetly strums guitar;
lassie sings of love and sees
sailor from afar.

Well Kim, I enjoyed the balmy ' feel' of this I could smell the sweet dry aroma of straw hats, also the white sand looked like smooth ivory, an entrancing write from my view..'
