A young girl heading to her vacation spot.

Image via Wikipedia

Peering down from a window seat,

she closed her eyes and she sensed the heat,

the plane made its final approach,

and she didn’t mind flying coach,

the land meets the ocean on the east,

and it was emerald green,

that could be seen

from her window,

perfectly manicured hedges and lawns,

graceful coconut palms,

and backyards dotted with pools,

tennis courts and yard tools,

to an outside it would seem,

that Palm Beach was like a dream,

glamourous in every way,

larger than life, so they say,

beautiful and mysterious like a good book,

worth every moment shared,

worth every look,

highway filled with fancy cars,

host to kings, tycoons and movie stars,

and now a little girl,

heading to a fantasy world.
