Monterey

Sea and mountain wed in bliss
Paradise of earth's sweet kiss
The heavens sing a song of peace
Whispering fog caress and keep

The sounds of crashing waves arose
Are stilled and washed in blue green coves
The rhythm of the monarch's wings
Float cares away and comfort brings

There is no peace like this for me
To sit beneath a cypress tree
Close my eyes and hear the breeze
Of moonlight laughing in the trees
