Paradise – The Island

There, I saw beauty of everything I’d ever known before, and beyond….
Everything I had dreamt of or fought for
Drenching me with moist smiles of air, in a Victorian laced wedding dress
Azure throat yawning threads of sea, soft tangible music.
Layers unfolding. equating the sum of something essential, like Sunday Mornings
How exposing my soul’s intimate portrait.
Delving into an endless quiet noise (white sound)
Penetrating throughout nights and days, of a drunken voyage engaged
Waiting for the last entrees to spend themselves, dripping a genuine need of diverse imagination.
I sailed as a child encompassed in this simplicity, returning to sobriety and the immobilization of love, both fortune and peril.
Within that incredible fiber of imaginations, I recognized myself again,
The intense poet of self-examination.
Within this swollen element, there is a prophetic quality,
Like an entire ocean indoctrinating the mind’s equality…
And intellectual admiration!
An exaggerated composition on our right side, unraveling man from child, day from night, linking a generous conviction, softly articulating mission, the four encompassed trade winds, combined everything into one sound, a multiple language, all in it’s own…Translating destiny….literally dedicating a lifetime of community service for eternity.
How we use it is entirely up to us
And so upon return, there to that place in time, I will refresh and be opened again
To this tremendous touch, of the hand of nature, sea, soil, love; and God.!

The island was just like you said, and more.
