The Existence of Paradise

Kia Orana!

Here is a poem I am working on from Rarotonga. Very early stages, kinda thought vomit about the island, in construction now. But it’s a cool flow of what the island is all about. Enjoy.

 

The Existence of Paradise

Land ho!
We made it!
Paradise exists!

God himself
Has planted his kingdom
On Earth!

Hollywood is full
Of saints
And truth sayers!

The trees are how they said
And the mountains
Are as they should be!

River Dolphins, Toucans, Giant Earth Worms, etc.

Not skipping a beat, my first week of tropical ecology class at Universidad San Francisco de Quito was spent below the canopy of Yasuni National Park in the Amazon region of ecuador. The university’s Tiputini Biodiversity Station is located in the far east of Ecuador on the Tiputini river, a tributary of the Napo River. The Tiputini field station is easily the most remote place I’ve ever been to.
