Islands of the Caribbean


In the middle of the warm Atlantic
where there are small islands
    in the Caribbean sea
where white sand beaches
stretch a long distance
    the end you can not see
 

Translucent crystal waters
aqua fresh pools with no sides
glistening from the star above
that keeps the tepid tides
 

from Freeport to Montego Bay
the miniature isles to the east
all fourteen will feel the same
with considerable colorful reefs
 

ocean melds into the vibrant sky
as clouds bounce off the horizon
there is no place i’d rather be
for every working day i shun
 

umbrella drinks, steel drums vibes
beautiful vistas that they boast
never want to leave there
billowed sails maneuver boats
 

hopping pristine shores to shore
which one will i like most?
no matter which one i visit
it’s nirvana along the coasts.

I am from Miami, Florida and have written poems throughout my life. Some more prolific than others. I know this site is for young poets and writers, but i am young at heart with a little more life experiences. Since we all have been locked up in our own induced prison for awhile, i thought it was about time, since i have so much of it now, to gather all my writings and share my life with you all. Topics that i cover will be, "Mother Nature" "life" "Friendships" "Love" and "Some stories and Thoughts." I have loved art all my life, especially photography and graphic art (my profession, love designing logos and studied at the art institute of Ft. Lauderdale) and ceramics. I wrestled at light weight in high school and won a national award for one of my ceramic vases. I have gone through many rough waters in my life, which one of us hasn't,? which you will read when i post them. I fantasy roll play, play card games especially Poker, and i like board games. You are welcome to follow me on Facebook if you are so inclined to snoop through my pictures and my life. https://www.facebook.com/mitchell.abrahams.77 or for my poetry page "Me Myself & i" fb.me/mrapook I also belong the the "AllPoetry.com" website. Hope you enjoy my poems
