On An Island
Capsized
waves
tumbling
over
my
feet Cold,
wet
grains
of
dirt
beneath
my
skin Warmed
by
the
sun’s
glaze, My
mind
is
at
peace. Echoes
of
seagulls
and
dolphins
drowned
by
the
ocean’s
flow Watching
as
the
yellow
fades
deep
into
the
blue As
an
innocent
sea
turtle
buries
her
offspring
in
the
sand Dark,
mysterious
clouds
begin
to
linger
behind
me Like
a
hurricane,
circling
in
my
thoughts Embraced
upon
the
shore; Observance
cue:
my
feet
submerged
in
the
sand.
Bowed
in
reverence;
tears
start
falling
from
the
night
sky Bitter
emotions
comfort
my
isolation On
an
island,
in
my
dreams
Forgotten
by
the
wake
of
a
new
day
