Tropical Vacation

In our haste to pack, we left winter behind 
Easy to forget with thoughts of paradise filling our minds 
As we depart from the plane we are met with the warmth of the sun 
Relaxation has surely taken over leading to a week of endless fun
Strolling on the beach hand and hand 
Our feet are greeted by the sparkling sand 
As day turns to night a romantic dinner at sea awaits
A perfect evening for love we need to create
Dolphins glide by across the pristine turquoise ocean
All in sync with their effortless motion
The silence in the air is broken as a mariachi band starts to play 
What a pleasure to be part of such a wonderful day

Delightful! Enjoyed the rhyme. This reminds me of a cruise we took for my birthday during December. It was cold in North Carolina. But in the Bahamas it was warm in the 80s. Thanks for the reverie.
