As I lay here,

I begin to imagine 

A place I would call perfect.

I imagine an empty beach 

With warm, soft sand,

Perfect sized waves 

Pounding against the rocky shore line,

Conch and sea shells 

Of every shape and size 

Scattered across the sand.

I imagine the pinkish orange sunset 

Gleaming down on the water,

The sun slowly vanishing,

And the twinkling stars 

Coming out to play.

The surrounding palm trees 

Begin to sway in the 

Cool, summer-night breeze.

I imagine myself drifting away 

To the smell of burning wood

And the sound 

Of the crackling fire 

And tiny waves crashing.

My last thoughts?

This must be Paradise.
