Jekyll Island, Georgia…Land Of Dreams
Has slept called upon me this dream?
Or am I truly lucid in the things I’ve seen?
For if this is but a dream, awake me not this day
And deliver unto me this eternal peace I pray.
For there is in abundance in all the things of dreams
As Jekyll Island has ushered in a new era of personal peace.
Gone and banished is the glitter that Tybee now adores,
Replaced with wildlife sanctuaries on these truly golden shores.
So shame on Tybee for selling out, and shame gluttonous man,
Shame on him in his quest for more,
as he in his greed destroys a wondrous land.
So here I sit on natures golden shore
I find myself praying that time stand still
And that Jekyll will always remain this way forevermore.
Peace and happiness to you all from Allen & Leah on our journey of light.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
I'm glad you had better luck.
"For if this is but a dream, awake me not this day

I especially liked this line.
God Bless,

A native Georgian, I love the coastal island with undying loyalty, but our economy demands that some of us live in luxury and the changes to its natural state. You're right, let's be thankful for those islands and areas holding the line. I love each of them, and a lot in the middle, but then, that's how a self-made mountain man would view things, eh?

You and Leah keep the secret of Jekyll and Millionare's Row...it's OUR secret.
Beautifully rendered portrait of nature.
