“SOUTHERN NIGHTS”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
This steamy tropic island,
southern hemisphere…
Breezes warm with you,
skin soft, sincere…

Rum flowing smoothly,
dancing, reggae rhythm…
Flavor of the beat inside,
mood starting to blossom…

Lost unto dream worlds,
floating over the floor…
Holding close, not letting go,
neither had this before…

Amorous the way you are,
wanting your many delights…
Can’t help loving you,
here, in southern nights…

I rememeber the south being humid,
but not nearly as warm as this.
What a romantic and starry night you portray.

Really nice BC~

Does make me miss the southern summer nights.  Maybe it's time for a vacation.  One way to Margaritaville!

Bill,
if you could write like that about the south of your land maybe it's time you came to my great southern land.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
