A Poem from the Jetty Views Collection
I Found A Bit of Paradise - Viewed 282 Times
David Devaney
Website
June 13, 2010
T’was South Southwest of Houston
Where the earth and heaven meet
That I found a bit of paradise
In the sand beneath my feet
It is the place where each new day
Is different from the last
Where beauty comes in rainbow hues
And dreams on lines are cast
A place where pelicans all soar
To greet the morning sun
Where dolphins chase the angel fish
When they are having fun
Where starlight shines forevermore
And fantasies come true
An always special friendly place
With skies forever blue
It is the place where sugar sands
Across the dunes all blow
When winded by the southern breeze
Like ghosts they silent flow
The place where love is treasured more
And cherished as if gold
And where the fragrance of the sea
Cannot be bought or sold
It is a place of harmony
Of sanctity and hope
Where angels come when in between
So they with time can cope
It is the place where everyone
Can surely choose to be
A heart and mind and spirit pure
Fulfilled with ecstasy

“Devin”
