Island escape

Respect to the admirer of love and clarity

 

You're on the raft that drifts toward it

 

You must release the oar you use to slow down

 

It's only scary because it's new

 

 But if you let go you'll see

 

You are free

 

You are a power

 

Power is you

 

You will move from heart

 

You will sing the truth

 

Be consumed 

 

Sucked into

 

Pure waters

 

It's you who must choose

 

To lose what you cling to

 

And by mans law himself

 

Proceed to love and gratitude

 

To move in unison with rested hands

 

To spill all your ills

 

See them get soaked into the sand

 

Evaporated from the suns intense heat

 

Purified and rained upon the heads of all

 

And join one another in inherent communion

 

                                You've lost the island and have found a shore, you're raft is what now detours

 

Walk away until it is but a speck, Move in peace, no regrets. 

 

Your power prevails in midst of ails

 

Send them to love, and be still

Finest of Fine Lines

 It is you who must choose to lose what you cling to/send them to love and be still/move in peace, no regreats/it is scary only because it is new - I adore these lines, the glue of the core of the write - Island poems are nice - land as the thing to move toward - enjoyed this one, the 3-4 between lines spaces were annoying, my computer is so slow I forgot what was above and in the middle when I got to the end and had to re-read six times to get it all - time lost and unnecessary. Great poem though, Madigan - allets
