La Capella - Dominican Republic 1999

Sunny days and moonlit nights
In the magnificent gardens
Of La Capella,
Palms swaying in the wind
Beneath an azure sky,
The waves of the blue lagoon
Rippling, rippling,
While time stands still
With an eternal sense of bliss,
Wish to God that life could
Go on like this - forever,
Tango music drifting
Across the lagoon at night,
Moonlight reflecting in
Dona Felicia's passionate eyes
With a love more real than
Anything I've ever known,
Moments like this give
Life its very meaning,
Experiencing the world
In all its splendors,
An episode of ecstasy
- never to be forgotten,
A fond memory of supreme delights
To carry me through darker days...
