I Want to Be Where the Palm Trees Are

I want to be where the palm trees are,

Upon some sunny and sandy beach,

I want to be away from it all--

Out of touch and out of reach.



I want to lose myself in the sea

Or rest upon some moss covered rocks,

To roam about--wild and free--

Away from the crowds, schedules and clocks.



I want a blank canvas to paint anew,

I want a blank page and a childlike mind

To sit on a hilltop with a scenic view,

To see the world to which I was blind.
