A sonnet on the volcanic gem of the Indian Ocean.
A star and key within the azure deep,
Where coral gardens bloom beneath the wave,
And silent mountains watch the island sleep,
Above the shores that turquoise waters lave.
The sugar cane sways gently in the breeze,
A tapestry of cultures, faiths, and tongues,
Where every traveler finds a sense of ease,
And breathes the salt-air deep into their lungs.
From Grand Bassin to colorful Chamarel,
The rainbow earth reflects a diverse soul,
A place where harmony has cast a spell,
To make the fractured pieces finally whole.
No longer just a speck upon the map,
But paradise within the ocean's lap.
