Solace In The Tropics

Palm trees sway in a tropical paradise
My trepidation clings like a parasite
I try to forget as I gaze at this ocean
My body is locked and it is frozen
Burning embers of worry fill the beach
I wonder what this coconut could teach?
Stay solid but hollow inside?
Like a seabird I wish to glide
Should I put on a strength like a gown?
Surely the inner me will be left to drown?
I soon realise these drupes hang low
It is to this equator I should bow
No more fears of this operation
I'll strive to make this my occupation
To sink my worries into the sand
Building a castle that looks so grand
I have found solace in sun lit waters
Why worry in natures humble quarters?
This mental exercise has been the fiercest of pain
Now I'm divine and its tranquility I wish to claim
