 Caribbean Morena By: Noah Eaton 8/28/02 Standing at the pier of Dimbly-Doo Lagoon Watching many happy lovers on the sighing Caribbean Sailing in baby-blue glass swan paddle boats Pirates of ecstasy, finding happiness like Magellan I lean over the moonlit waters, I feel I can tread softly upon them Tears from my eyes splash into the abyss Dreaming and wishing so badly to hold my Joanna Tremble to her beauty...feel from her loves first kiss That scene from The Little Mermaid always rewinds in my mind Where the man kisses Ariel in the canoe How I wish I could kiss my girl Joanna And feel the fairy shrimp gyrate around us in the lagoon And all a sudden we would collapse out of our boat But we're laughing because we're so happy How I want you so badly to be my mermaid And feel like Walt Disney, Mickey with Minnie I feel a judge to myself, but without antonomasia You are a trope to all my dreams and what makes me comfortable You're the enchantment that makes gold of all my connotations And I wait here to feel your love so amorable Eager to sail beside you in this aurora lagoon of love Upon the swan and fly away to paradise Just imagining you crying in joy makes me flood in tears too I pray to God every night I'll always be fair, faithful, loyal, and never lie to you... I stand beside this quiet mountain pond Teardrops fall from my eyes wanting to meet you so badly They form ripples in the water, showing holograms of my dreams of you Taking you to Disneyworld, taking you to Palm Beach Gently sailing away to a romantic island with you Praying to God your hearts compass rose leads to me With no changes in latitudes or longitudes Crying softly just wanting to share my kiss with you by your beautiful briny sea My sweet Joanna, my Caribbean Morena... "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." Shakira [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (08-28-2002 11:37 PM).] |

awwww good ol' Noah it must tear at your heart - the distance - and it saddens me that two, in such love, are apart. Always impressive is your expression of your romance. Stealing a page from Jimmy Buffett with this gorgeous longing in Caribbean metaphor. Hang in there, Buddy. It will happen. . . . jeff |

You are a trope to all my dreams and what makes me comfortable You're the enchantment that makes gold of all my connotations There are so many smooth lines in this Noah, but these are the ones that made me sigh~ I loved your title and the picture too... You're inspiration is so tender and sweet... never let go of your dreams dear man!! |
