The jagged sandy cliffs stand tall and proud
As if to tell the ocean to go further is not allowed
A breathtaking coastline of multiple extremes
Where desert, coastline, and mountains connect with undetectable seams
Too much, too fast
What sets you apart, at this rate, may not last
Palm trees rise above the crowds like botanical pom-poms
Amidst the frenzied, the excitement, to call us back to the calm
Agriculture to entertainment, technology to art
Work hard for a while so you can play with all of your heart
Too much, too fast
What sets you apart, at this rate, may not last
The ocean life is abundant, the skiing is great
Laid back as the culture is, you must rush only to have to wait
Yet, despite the quakes, the landslides, and fires
To leave or change would be contrary to the local’s desires
The surf is too good, the sunsets and view
With all this at your grasp why try something new?
