A Beautiful Sight to Behold
There is a solitary island, surrounded on all sides by calm Pacific waters. Towering palm trees rise higher than a small skyscrapers, their leaves and branches providing an inviting relief from the blazing sun. Coconuts swing from the top in the humid breeze off the ocean; a set echo as their hollow shells clatter to the sand beneath. An abandoned hut rests quietly near the shore, patiently awaiting an arrival of visitors. A bamboo welcome mat with a pair of flip flops rests of the porch steps. A hammock is stretched taught between two bowing palm limbs, salty waves rolling in just below. The sky is a crystal blue, which seems to be reflected in the glassy, sparkling calm ocean. Only a short walking distance away, the coast becomes rocky and creates a natural cove. The boulders are beat by strong, torrential waves at high tide. Birds twitter and take off in flight to scoop up a fish from a white-capped wave. Little ghost crabs scatter as a wave whips softly across the sand, gently brushing away silt to reveal a shiny sand dollar. A pod of clicking dolphins gleefully speed across the horizon. A sweet aroma floats by. As you turn you back to the sea, you notice a bush of assorted hibiscuses. What bliss! To think, some people believe in evolution. A place of such paradise could never just gradually appear over millions of years. No, God hand-crafted each wispy cloud in the sky and colored-in each brilliant shade and hue. Only a master Artist could blend up such an amazing and beautiful sight. Indeed, a beautiful sight to behold!
