Between Shades of Green

The crew rowed the little galley

to the small Galapagos island.

They traversed along the cay

of the little peninsula.

A sea of emerald, cotswold, myrtle

and an air of mystery.

The Jungle lured them in, 

but the escapements were unforgiving.

The Jungle was a Siren,

luring unprepared travelers in.

The Jungle was a beauty, 

but one to beware.
