I Hear Palm Fronds Drinking Rain

I hear palm fronds
drinking rain.
The saw palmettos
point in vain.

The Spanish moss
invades live oaks.
I don't mind though,
it helps me cope.

The Australian pines
are my favorite kind.
Needles like hair,
they shush the air.

This is a place
where ospreys prey.
They soar, they sing,
they're up all day.

It makes no difference
where I go.
I come back here,
it's what i know.
