It’s not exactly an island like you might have pictured in your mind. Especially since it isn’t way out in the South Pacific or some place exotic like that. So, it’s not really an island day spa. But I’m gonna take some poetic license and stick with my assertion.
Because it sure feels like an island day spa.
Yeah, you’ve got the beautiful blue and green clear ocean waters. And there’s sugary white sand. Plus there are lots of seagulls, pelicans, and other seaside birds making their presence known. And on the right days, it can all add up to a very therapeutic look and feel.
And Elgielene and I will be calling that part of the country home. Again.
She did a lot of her growing up there. It’s the area where we met all those years ago. And we have quite a few extended family members there. I won’t go into why that’s a big factor, right now. But just know we’re both looking forward to it. And we believe it will be a very beneficial move. And the move is only a few weeks away now.
Where, you ask? The Emerald Coast of Pensacola, Florida.
So, that’s why I’m in sort of an island spa mood right now. And that reminds me of a song I wrote for kids of all ages to enjoy. Here are the lyrics to….
Island Day
Over in the mango tree
Toucan looking straight at me
Starfish in the ocean waves
Dolphin, laughin’, misbehaves
Oh, oh, oh, it’s an island day
And Oh, oh, oh sail your cares away
Oh, oh, oh, cross the seven seas
Oh, oh, oh, on a clear cool Breeze
Parrot is a private eye
Big Blue whale don’t tell no lie
Swordfish out there watching you
Wonders what you’re gonna do
Chorus
If you want to roam,
A little while away from home,
Let’s catch the rising sun
Never will the fun be done…
King crab with his mighty claw
Claims that he’s from Antigua
And he says, “Hey, if you please,
Set a course-up to The Keys?” © 2008 TF
