Vacation In Costa Rica
“I must be out of my mind,” I thought
As I hurled myself into the green abyss
Over the forest canopy the zip-line went
“Never, ever again if I manage to survive this”…
I survived and now must brag a bit
I was as brave as brave could ever be
Just part of our Costa Rican vacation
In a wondrous country I’d longed to see
“Pura Vida”, they say, homage to a good life
Such a friendly and simply beautiful place
Full of curious mammals and lovely birds
And natural wonders for all to embrace…
Watched a sloth slowly maneuver a branch
And we had lunch with a monkey or two
White water rafting and a trek in the jungle
Coffee plantations and pure water so blue…
I will never forget the people or places we saw
If you ever have a chance to visit please go
You might even be brave and go Zip-lining
You will love the unique experience I know…
