Soft and Full

Tropic mooned, on the rise
For what's now eyed for love
Warms more the heart this, mid-day's
Sunned burning rage above.

Imagination only dreamt
In dark the starkness hid its flight
Until the tropic Phoenix went
Arrayed from daytime into night

With visual field microscopic
Some utterly blind and myopic
Consume to the max
As a luxury tax 
On those needing help philanthropic

Bad Tropic

When taken ill beyond the Gods
(For their hunger feels so endless)

I saw their hillsides-
Grazed to the ground

I found no witness.

Either Side of a Tree Shade

From banished to a desert
To well off, caressed
Tropic; splenderous.
Either side of a tree shade.
Summer's. One confessed
As ubiquitous!

A mystic beat from a tropic isle
drumbeat sounds in roots rock style
a musical treat that's known and loved
that floats on air like dancing doves

Tropic Skies

Trouble travels far.
Of its dark cloud
Not one sign, however
Broods here. Ever!

All but wraps and warm
Our minds around
For sea haze, does enhance
Dreamy romance.

Premium Member Frozen In Time

Light tropic breezes
carry colorful balloons
across taro fields

While ancient homesteads
dotting the quiet landscape
stand frozen in time

seagulls' wings flitter 
wild waves hustle into cliffs ~
jazzing tropic sun
               ~
shaggy mangroves sway
ivory clouds twist and twirl~
waltzing 'neath June sky

Tangerine topics turn up in magnificent minds of Manganese
Enhancing the mind of she who is the most easily at ease
Imagining new possibilities is something that we promptly seize
Enjoyable to watch her think in the citrus tropic windy breeze.

Fun In the Sun

A lizard lies in the sand,
In a blazing tropic sun.
Three kids chuckle under a shade,  
Starring at the calm being.
	One says, "Look, it must be dead."
	Another, "Has tummy ache."
	Another, "Just sunbathing." 
The lizard nods, wags his tail.

Buddies Under the Sea

by Wayne Wysocki

An unlikely pair of symbionts
In harmony do swim
Through sunny, tropic waters,
Beyond the coral rim;

'Tis strange, for one is monstrous
And one is like a lark;
How oddly they are mated,
The pilot fish and shark.
Form: Rhyme

Hibiscus Ladies

Hibiscus ladies greet the day
Unfurl your painted skirts of scarlet
And greet the tropic sun
Turn your face upward
And let the whisper of a breeze
Gently move your flower
Then at day's end
Quiety close your frocks
And sleep in the cool of the night

The Wind

Feel the wind,
as she ruffles your hair.
For she has travelled far, and wide,
and now she is here.
She has swept the icy mountain tops,
and ruffled the ocean oh so blue.
Left her mark upon the desert sand,
and shaken many a tropic palm,
on her way to caress you.

Breathe in sweet scents of tuberose
And let fine mist caress your face,
Dive deep into aqua waters—
Become enchanted with this place.
