My secluded island
surrounded by friends
Creating the barrier
so that, I may have
calmer waters
within
My hammock
tied between two trees
swings, ever so lightly
with the breeze
the soft caress, of their
well~wishes
whispers along my skin
the sands I walk upon
leaving footprints
sometimes, only one
Where their love has
carried me
let the tide
wash away
our worries, of today
Home is where the heart is,
my momma always said

This is simply beautiful. There is a peacefulness and clarity about the world you describe – one which I have too! The sense of a tide washing away our worries brings such a soft sense of timelessness to the piece. Love it!
Amanda, simple words that give a sense of security and peace. Well written 🙂
