For a few days, wonderful days
this was our island, a refuge, a retreat
escape from the day to day, a warm, tropical
wondrous place, so different from home
Luxuriating in the hot, sun beating on our skin
the water slippery warm
smell of flowers, of the rainforest,
even the sulfur, unique in our history
Slowing down, strolling along,
even in the rain
this place, this special place
was our island

Our honeymoon week,
St. Lucia
