Charleston, SC

Bright sun shining on my college holiday,
I’m finally free and very far away.
I walk the city I know with my heart,
my college town, my fresh new start.
Beauty fathomed in many ways,
in my college town far away.
I walk on the beach beside the sun.
All this warmth makes me feel undone.
Comfort gained from less of a strain,
To be alone from the stream of the main.
No interruptions, mood is just right.
A feeling so good, my heart will take flight.
Roller coaster waves crashing the sand,
I reach to a seashell and grasp with my hand.
It tells a story lived much in the ocean,
as I dip my head in and start into motion.
In the city I walk carefully on King Street,
Famous Charleston shuffle; everything’s complete.
Now to the park that makes all worth while.
Looking out into the ocean with that familiar smile.
The sun flows through and glides gently on my face,
as the trees above me try to cover with grace.
Charleston: the city grown up to adore.
The sights and the comfort, one can’t ignore.
With no doubt in my mind, my future lies here.
Much success, beauty, and a future career.
God has truly blessed this wondrous college town,
Of any other city, it wears the best gown.
This Southern Comfort, hard to believe,
It’s my college town, and I will never leave.
