Emotional Romantic:

[SuzyQ]

This Island Calls to You

I hear your heart call longingly
across life's vast and restless sea.
Against its plunging swells, you've fought
to reach horizons blindly sought,
while in your stormy eyes, unclear,
lie dreams lost in a million tears.
This island cries for you.

I send to you my silent prayer—
impassioned whispers in the air.
Please let the winds of destiny
return your homeless heart to me.
Embrace the peace that nature's found
and soon you will be homeward bound.
This island waits for you.

I long to hold you at my shore.
You know me, for we've loved before.
When morning lifts the hem of night,
in dawning blush we will unite
as lovers of some ancient flow
who reached 'cross time from long ago.
This island longs for you.

Caress me with your touch anew
and gaze into the ageless blue;
my eyes, the skies of yesterday.
Again, I'll steal your breath away
and breathe my soul back into you.
Each breathless moment sends you to
the island of your longing.

WOW!!!!!
This poem is so well done, I was actually singing the words as I read them!
I don't often find poems with such perfect rhythm and rhymes!
FANTABULOUS!!!!

Hi Altree,
Thank you for reading my poem and for the nice comments too.
That was good of you to plug this in the chatbox too.
Hope to read some of your words soon.

Hi SuzyQ,
I agree with Ms. Tree. I'll include the "wooowww" factor first of all....
It was Tree's great idea to plug your fantastic poem into the Chat Box, so that others
would be able to see it, then, comment on it...
I saw it in the Chat Box. I came along to let you know that your poem made a real
impact in my heart. Each line pounds like tons of words into the beat of life, like
rhythmical sounds of waterfalls. How inpired you must have been to have written such
high caliber poetry!! I am impressed. Awesome, SusyQ... I am truly pleased to meet you, dear.
Keep up with your worthwhile work of art. I am your admirer from now on...
Blessings,
Starry.

[SuzyQ]

Thank you Starry! It's nice to meet you as well.
Your words of praise are so encouraging and much appreciated. Makes me want to write more.

Hi Kim,
I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you so much for reading and leaving your thoughts. I appreciate that you take the time. I also apologize that I didn't reply until now. A careless oversight I'm afraid.

Thank you Eric. I appreciate that you read my poem and left a comment. Thanks again.


Uh, Nomad, sounds like you accidentally left comments to Zac on this thread. If they were indeed meant for me... well, I thank you very much.
