 Turquoise Water

 

You found the beach

As a young whip.

Is your name Rafael,

From the Sebastian ship?

 

In 1708 you sank

Vera Cruz, you gave up.

Let me, teach you

How not to tank.

 

A man of desire

Standing proud.

You are the Captain

A heart’s desire.

 

You own an island

That’s what matters.

Sought it, earned it

Turquoise water.

Beautiful historical flavored poem with an equally gorgeous picture.
I can just imagine myself standing there looking out over that turquoise lagoon.

Happy New Year 2012 !
