Just the two of us
(palm tree marriage vows)

when you lean
I lean
you sway
me too
our green is so perfect
against all this blue
I love how your coconuts
fall to the ground
I promise that I
will be forever around
 

 

CLEM AND NORMAN'S VACAY

how to paint a palm tree by rebecca snow of honolulu hawaii

 Clem and Norman's Vacation

Norman and his brother Clem

an island trip did plan

they knew they wanted lots of sea

and just a touch of land

 

The concierge , well, ,there was none,

and missing was the valet

there was a hut in which to sleep

but not a lovely chalet

 

They were rowed out to their  retreat

a sliver off the coast

A mermaid fair to welcome them

and a tiki as their host

 

They donned their swim trunks

dove right in

basked in paradise.

there was not much they wanted for

and every thing was nice.

BUT

Clem got restless second day

and Norman burned his scalp

Clem read both books at the desk

and Norman fished for kelp

 

Came the weekend , time to go

and Clem and Norman fled

the island life is plenty grand

but no place like home in bed
