Home Away From Home

The soft rusteling of the palm tree leaves in the wind,
water the perfect color of translucent blue the creamy white sand.
Hot sun shining over the beach below,
the hammock swing swaying in the breeze.
The recognizable beachy smell of salt, and suncreen
Sipping the refreshing taste of Sprite
This is paradise.
This is my home-away-from-home.
So many memories and laughs around the dinner table,
And secrets my Ma and I share when my parents aren't around.
From the late night drives to Sonic
to the early morning adventures to snorkeling off the coast.
Tranquil, and peaceful
This is my home-away-from-home.

I travel to Florida to stay at my Grandma's house all the time. We do so many things while we stay there and it's always been my favorite place to go other than staying at my house.
