My Friends Live In Florida...A Poem For You!

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Ellison Realty 352-209-4044

My friends live in Florida, I want it to be me,

To swim in the pool and fish in the sea.

I want to live in Florida but where do I go,

I just don't want to shovel anymore SNOW.

I've heard of gators, sharks and snakes,

The gators like swamps.  The sharks of the sea he partakes.

The snakes hate mothballs and that works for me.

So stay out of the swamps and enjoy the sea,

Put mothballs out and the snakes they will flee.

Now do you like waterfront, Subdivisions or farms,

55+ living, or the Gulf where the water is warm?

You may want to live inland away from the coast?

Where horse farms abound and the Triple Crown boast.

We've got 55+ Communities where you can have fun,

Meet some new people or bask in the sun,

You can make friends in the clubhouse or on the golf course

Deal some cards, play billiards or karaoke til you're hoarse.

This is Florida, My friend, it's different than up North,

Springtime abounds with a glorious warmth.

In the summer we enjoy the cool air inside,

In Autumn you may want to throw the windows open wide.

The winter may bring a touch of some frost.

But by noontime you'll put on your t-shirts & shorts.

So give ear to this former Up-Norther, you see

This land is for living, for you and for me.

I'd love to help you find the home of your choice

A place where you and your family rejoice.

So give me a call don't wait ‘til tomorrow

To buy here in Florida you might not even need to borrow.

From Florida and Ocala you may never want to roam,

Now call me today! Pick up your phone,

You'll want to start living in your Brand New Home!!!
