Island in Paradise

0 posted 2003-03-03 09:21 AM

On Sunday morning
All the waves in purest white
kneeling on the beach

Steeples reach in praise
gatherers meet with a kiss
heavenly choirs singing

tradewinds journey fair
morning doves cry out love song
leopard clouds kiss blue

shadows hide at noon
sunbathers sizzle to brown
dancing azure waves

hammock on lanai
mango tango sherbet ice
slack key melodies

ominous gray clouds
packing suitcase comes to town
rainmakers showdown

Poetry is:
Passion, imagination and intellect running together.

Aloha with warmest regards, Cheryl Stewart Koomoa

(smiles) Yay!!! Oh my gosh, I want some mango tango sherbet ice, I wish I lived right by the ocean so I could feel the rain much more often, the desert is nice but I've got to see the rest of the colors! (big hugggsssss) This is lovely, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Cheryl, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Cheryl, this is beautiful...very descriptive.

PSSST.......I also like that you wrote each verse in the 5-7-5 syllable form. Are these senryu or haiku? I confuse which they are all the time. I know that haiku is about nature, though. I love to do these, too. Aren't they fun?

Hugs,
Ethel

Hi Cher....I lived on Maui for about ten years, many moons ago. When you write like this it takes me back all over again. My sis is leaving tomorrow morning to spend the week, while I sit here going no where.

Enjoyed this piece of paradise you wrote~
