Everywhere you go will be somewhere
you’ve never been before. Try this:
from Sabana Grande head north on route 120, one-
by-one the mile markers enriching
every minute of your life. Follow this
absorbing the natural beauty all around—stop
see the coast from above, Guánica Bay where
the aqua-blue water shimmers under
celestial-blue skies. Look beyond the
Caribbean sea’s many miles of sand
butter-gold beaches near the mangrove swamp—buried
roots grab the waterlogged mud. Don’t bypass
Charco Pilón—lagoon-blue natural pool,
filled by silvering cascading waters. On the rock
the cavernous chamber filled with crystalline streams,
where you can swim or be mesmerized
by the spraying water making a magical plinking sound.
And still, the enchanting findings abound.

I'm sitting here in the Northern Cold, and suddenly along comes your poem and takes to the beauty and the warmth of your tropical isle. "Everywhere you go, will be somewhere, " caught my attention immediately. I then started on that journey and stopped to see the "aqua-blue water", the butter-gold beaches, the blue lagoon and cascading waters, and by then I was mesmerized. MY mind and I thank you for bringing us this quiet respite on a cold day. I'm saving this for future use> - Phil A.
