Poetry
~Lonely Island~
The tropic sun has risen
Golden rays it spreads on the ocean water
Wild calls of morning bird unbidden
The lonely island has not ever a bother
No other land for miles to see
The waves against the sandy beaches drone
The island is lonesome as can be
And yet in its solitary exile never quite alone
Animals scamper across hot sand
Green palms rustle in the warm salty breeze
Flowers bright with tropic color so grand
Monkeys swing playfully from treetops with ease
Coconuts litter the yellow beach
Turquoise sea glistens in all its splendor
Magical parrot flies just out of reach
A sight more than the imagination can render
And though no man has touched its shore
There is a beautifully familiar Presence all around
That every corner of Earth has borne
Making life itself freely abound
The tropic sun has set
The clear stars in their perfect twilight gleam
The lonely island darkness has met
Making it all seem as if it were a mystical dream
