Somewhere in the Caribbean, a cruise ship pulls up to an island of paradise.
Under the palm tree canopy lies a man on a hammock catching the rays of the sun,
While his wife swims in the bright blue waters
As the marine life gazes from below.

A young girl and her friends go snorkeling and find many treasures below.
Sand Dollars and Sea Stars galore,
Shipwrecks and even a cuttlefish too!

Somewhere on the island is a secret hideout,
One where parents aren't allowed to be in at all.
The sound of accepted members serving the volleyball in a game,
While others just slump over on hammocks nearby.
Some of them play ping pong under the shade,
But lose their ball to the hungry shrubs nearby.

Elsewhere, a group rides their bikes all over the island with friends.
They find a hidden entrance to a secret passageway,
Untouched and unsettled, feeling as if they were stranded,
Looking into the unprotected area of the water.
A boat is seen coming for them,
As they prepare for the greatest ride of their life.

Alas, it is time the day comes to an end,
As all of them return to the ship they came from
And soon, sail wherever brings them next.
Well, it's my poetic feeling again to write a poem, so I did it on my recent cruise trip, hehe. 

I actually took this picture as I was chilling on the hammock.
