Paradise Poem by White Tiger

The sky is clear and blue
And the sand pearly white
The water is warm too
Brings joy to my heart, this site
The birds have found a haven
Here, away from it all
On the slopes, there's even a raven
Howling out its maiden call
The trees stand firm and tall
Grounded by fertilization
When they get old, they fall
To be burried by vegetation
Laying there eggs inside a burough
Strategically in the sand
They survive to see tomorrow
The baby turtles of this land
The albatross expands its wings
To hover in the air
While its babies start to sing
Wanting food, without a care
At night you stare into the sky
And see the bright lit stars
It makes you wonder, why the world
Has to endure so many wars
This graceful place
Is wherever you want it to be
In your mind or in your heart
As long as you can see
That beauty is very fragile
And comes with a price
This is my version
And I call it, paradise.
