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

  1. 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!
