There is no need for a pun,
but the hot Florida sun
can bring too much deadly fun.

A SMALL TOWN
(Source: apprenticehero)
A town of sea breezes,
long evening walks,
and colorful sunsets.
A quaint Florida town
with parties on the beach,
friendly townspeople,
and THE DEAD.
No town is perfect.

A PERFECT OASIS
Palm trees waving in the breeze.
Blue-green water for me, please.
White sand sparkles in the sun.
Tourists frolic and have fun.
A perfect oasis for the elite.
Many celebrities you might meet.
The night brings icy winds
and demons’ deadly sins.
Dark shadows descend on the town.
My life has turned upside down.
ENJOY THE VIEW
clear the bad thoughts,
erase the worries.
Instead, I want to see a place
where birds chirp and play,
where mountains soar high.
I lift my face to the sun
to the beauty of life,
to the puffy white clouds.
Join me.
NEED TO GET AWAY?
Come to our shore.
There are demons
and much more.

I’M READY
I walk across the rocks,
Lift my face to the sunshine,
Dip my toes in the cold water.
I’m ready.
I’M HERE, MY LOVE
The waves propel me forward.
I’m here, my love.
I’ve come to bask
in your glow.
I’ll warm in the heat
of your fire.
Too hot.
I’m melting.
I’ve come too close.
DEATH MARKS THE END
THE DEAD GAME SERIES
Welcome to Oasis, Florida,
Your vacation paradise.
We have sunshine & beaches.
At night, we even have leeches.
The fun begins sharply at sunset.
A journey you won’t soon forget.
PARADISE IS CALLING MY NAME
How would paradise
appear to you?
A house standing in calm water.
The scent of flowers in the air.
People strolling the clean streets.
No need to hurry.
Warm breezes.
Sun shining.
Birds chirping.
Perfect.
PINK SAND
The pink sand feels so soft.
Keeps my spirits aloft.
The water is clear and blue.
I want to enjoy that too.
As the sun brightens the day,
All I want to do is play.
