Time Sensitive
Bird of Paradise flowers in colors bright
under a banyan tree in mid-morning light
as birds sing their island song so sweet
dreams take form and scurry on happy feet
Rum drink cooler and fresh fruit fill
and pleasant memories mix and mill
peace of soul is found in silence then
as you wonder where your real life’s been
Island winds set a mind to roam
here on this rich dark loam
where grows a garden oh so grand
all without man’s guiding hand
Another eden becoming all too full
succumbing to progress’s daily pull
come see it before it too is gone
and its just some island in the dawn
Time Sensitive
Beautiful.
