Paradise

The ocean rolls
Over the warm, white sand,
As tropical winds
Blow warmth to the land.

Just off-shore,
Tropical flowers lie in bed,
With colors of yellow,
-- Orange, fuchsia, and red.

Toucan flies
In a clean blue sky,
And parrots mimic
As they fly.

Sit and relax
For a wonderful day,
On Paradise Island
While sitting by the bay.

Well, thank you for this, AW. Here I sit chilled to the bone from a brisk walk in the cold air, and I get transported off to Paradise Island through the magic of your poetry!

Now I feel all warm and relaxed. Instead of hot mulled cider, I now feel like having a Pina Colada!

This was a delightful, and very colourful post!

Hugs with love,
EA

I would love to sit on Paradise Island. Looks like a very relaxing place to be. The weather has changed here. It has turned off very cold.

Hopefully all of Pipdom will head for this heavenly piece of paradise!

As you said, the more the merrier.

I like what Effjayel is bringing!

..."an abundance of love & smiles & a solar powered chocolate fountain."  ~ Sounds good to me!

I could bake an angel food cake topped with tropical fruits!

Oh, and I don't need an airline ticket. I'll use my own wings! lol

Let the parrrrty begin!

Ok, now I'm repeating myself because I don't know how to wipe one of these out. Oh well, that may well be part of why I reply so seldom.
