Let's go there now.
This island
you've built
for us.
I see it surrounded
not by the sound of the surf
but the beating of
your heart next to mine.
No sun to warm us
instead
we bask in the glow
of love's flame.
The sun
shines down
on our little island
and the tropic nights
sing our lullaby.
Our island.
Here.
With you.

I try to play catch up weekly… It’s so difficult when I have so many people I love to read… Add that to my meds during the day and I’m exhausted.
I aologize that it took so long to read.

You’re so very welcome. I actually figure out why I wasn’t catching a lot of your work. I had to go back into settings to view daily. This way, I don’t miss a thing. LOL!
I love when I can figure things out! LOL! 🤣
