Tropical Traffic
Emerald giants line the street,
Iron horses inch along and compete
Palm trees sway in sun-kissed skies,
Mirrored on a windshield, *sigh*
Contrasts dance, a curious scene,
Paradise glimpsed, on metal sheen.
But wait, a ukulele's tune,
Spills from a truck, a joyful croon!
Paradise is still there, waiting
Palm trees sway in sun-kissed skies,
Mirrored on a windshield, *sigh*
Contrasts dance, a curious scene,
Paradise glimpsed, on metal sheen.
But wait, a ukulele's tune,
Spills from a truck, a joyful croon!
Paradise is still there, waiting
beyond the traffic jam.

The kapok tree, Ceiba pentandra,
or silk-cotton tree,
grows up to 200 feet tall,
10 feet across at the trunk!
A kind heart is a beautiful
thing to share, but
don't forget to extend
those amazing traits to yourself.
You are worthy of your
You are worthy of your
own love and care.
