What a romantic dream. You turn your backyard into a beach in Hawaii... Happiness comes from within. As long as you have a smile and a positive attitude, you got it made.

I can tell from your poem,it is a paradise to you. Enjoy it...

Happy writing. Thank you for sharing.

Congratulations on your win:) and I love your last stanza, my feelings exactly:"We couldn't afford Hawaii,
epic cruise ships? Not a chance!
But in our backyard paradise,
each night we sweetly dance."

Ah, I can feel the sun and the breeze, and long for the days that we can go to actual places like this. But you've created your own in your back yard! Magnificent!

This is a very clever take on the idea of paradise and I really like it. if we could all just figure this out and live n our own versions of paradise and enjoy the happiness within, no matter where we are hanging out.

    I agree. It's not where you are but who you're with that matters. Thank you for this nice review. :)

A lovely twist at the end, creative and thoughtful. I like the way your poem exemplifies appreciation for the blessings one has, and that one can find "Paradise" in imaginative and fun ways. Best wishes for the contest.

Your writing clearly reveals that you have found a personal paradise with easy rhymes and rhythms. It may be just a little too easy in the sense that some of the descriptions are overly familiar. Maybe you could have stretched more for unique expressions. Good job of satisfying the contest requirements.

What a great idea to make the most of what you have and create a paradise that you and your husband can enjoy together. Cruise ships are too risky during a pandemic so what you have is perfect! Best wishes in the contest!

Dear Mystery Writer,

hahahaha This is so much fun! I could imagine the speaker sitting in a little tiny kid's bathing pool - like the 6" deep one. I smiled all the way through this one. Thanks and good luck!

What an excellent transition from (enhanced) fantasy to reality. This is a good example of "life is what you make of it" -- paradise is where you find it. Hubby doing the cooking? Paradise in itself -- forget the palm trees.
