Far Away Places...

Island’s sunlit shores,
many places
far away.
Mind’s eye’s
beauty
is seen,
in sun’s
daydreams

I really like the flow of this poem. You did a awesome job with the picture above! As I was reading this I actually took a little "vacation" to your Island! (I read it several times) You truly amaze me with so few spoken words yet powerful impact! In Love & Light... Blessed Be!

I think you have definitely captured the picture within your words! Very hard to paint the picture in 15 words! Good luck in the contest!
