I'm glad to say I'm on my way
South of home to the town, Port A
My heart is glad
And my car's in gear
I'm primed for all the beautiful birds I hear!









Oh, I'm glad to say, along the bay
I drove some miles,
Seeing beauty that wowed...
Then mid-morn - a cotton-filled, heart-shaped cloud!!
Jamaica Farewell by the Kingston Trio

That's the first time I've ever seen a heart-shaped cloud. Wow! And beautiful pictures plus poetry. :)
