Recalling a peaceful holiday in Corsica


Regimental satsumas growing beneath the pool

Umberella over tables keeping me cool

Occasional flights pass on their way to land

A magical setting laid by a mystic hand.

 

An inviting pool accepts our cooling knees

Then a deep breath to launch a sneeze

At once in the water, stress unwinds

As readers on the deck, endulge thier minds

 

A gentle breeze to waft the heat

the local 'Spar' provides sufficient to eat

Butterflies taste the lavender and rosemary

In the distance the boar roam contary

 

Provisions await our late arrival

Making sure of the first day's survival

Thereafter to eat at Le Plat du Jour

Greeting all with a jaunty Bonjour.

 

Our third time in Corsica our first down here

Better each time we'd all declare

So calm as ever in this peaceful oasis

Found and cherished by Corsican Places.

A beautifully rendered poem about a beautiful place remembered. It evokes thoughts of my poem, “Relaxing.” My web counter shows that it is being searched quite often as readers out there are looking for a poem that soothes their soul like the one you just wrote.
