Purple daze



Purple daze

Sunshine haze over milky blue Ocean reflects white horses rolling wave

Sea gulls squawk as they glide on warm winds effortlessly above the port were boatmen slave

Splendour azure skies trapping the contours of forests behind cliffs tallest and brave

Sand slips softly between like cream poured across to melt your eyes onwards to a secret cave

Sounds of battering water plumes against structure as crabs bath in pools beneath in enclave

Statuesque brown palm trees abundant solidify the picture of an ebb and flow between powerful to save

Submit to the reality of paradise on Earth as two white doves coo whilst I slumber in a purple daze
