Happy St. Maarten's Day
Happy St. Maarten's Day

I want to be where the sun is always shining, and the tropical breezes flow so freely.
I want to be where the clear blue water washes over the shiny shores in placid splendour.
I want to be where the mountains stand majestic and reign supreme o'er the lands.
I want to be where the seagulls sing their songs of pleasure soaring over the fisherman's catch of the day.
I want to be where family surrounds you, and the sounds of their laughter embraces you like a warm blanket on a cold day.
I want to be where my soul is at peace, at home in my place under the blue canopy of the caribbean sky.
I want to be there, onthat isle, so small, yet so grand in all its simple sophistications.
I want to be in that place called St. Maarten, my home by the sea.
