Oh Island Oh Island

Your Exquisite Beauty Beckons Me

Your Colors, Your Sounds, and Warm Breezes Streaming Into My Consciousness

Like a Slap to the Face of my Inner Self

I am Reeling

My Nostrils have Captured the Scent of the Food on the Breeze

Drawn to the Island

Drawn to the Culture

The Beat of the Ever Present Music Hums through my Veins

The Rhythms Propel Me

The Pace of San Juan’s Comings and Goings, Excites Me

Oh Island Oh Island I am on Your Doorstep, but Awaiting My Arrival Guide Me, Send the Coqui to Call Me In The Beat of the Meringue Will Drive Me Oh Island Oh Island I am Here, Outside the Air Terminal the Transformation Begins The Spirit of The Island and the People Fills Me up, Welcomes Me I am Transformed and Whole I am The Adopted Child of The Caribbean Jewel… Puerto Rico

Oh Island Oh Island

I am on Your Doorstep, but Awaiting My Arrival

Guide Me, Send the Coqui to Call Me In

The Beat of the Meringue Will Drive Me

Oh Island Oh Island

I am Here, Outside the Air Terminal the Transformation Begins

The Spirit of The Island and the People Fills Me up, Welcomes Me

I am Transformed and Whole

I am The Adopted Child of The Caribbean Jewel…
