The Shore of Machu Picchu

With neatly terraced lawns
And grey old walls of rock
Children play
As trees do sway
In their mossy-colored socks.

The waterfalls of green
Forever flow and roar.
Glowing mornings
And mid-day stormings
On Machu Picchu's shore.

These islanders are blessed
To live so far away
From bumbling strife
Of city life
And on their island play.
