An Island Poem by David DeSantis

An Island

Rating: 2.8


On an island
I met you
in my dreams
one night

And the moonlight
before us
it danced through
your starlight

as the sun woke
around us
and palms swayed
through tree tops

A smile
I gave you
came crashing
with the waves

And I'm happy
for the first time
with the sunrise
before me

To see you
even a dream
the blue sky
she calls us

To have known you
one time
as we walk
a boardwalk

I hand you
bright beads
you wear them
your neckline

And we smile
together
drum beats
and congas

Surrounded by
people
I'm lost in
your eyesight

And the beauty
of a face
I've seen like
no other

To see you
even a dream
the blue sky
before us

To have known you
one time
as we walk
this boardwalk

A fisher
finds his catch
children
feed seagulls

and you here
is all i need
on an island
in a dream

This is something similar to a Copacobana scenario. I like the rhythm particularly.

For me the good poem is a dream island, when reading it i must feel that i am leaving the place where i am. That is why I like to read poetry and that is why i like this piece very much - it makes me travel far away. Your easy flow of words made my travel a pleasure. mmmm, very harmonious piece... Peace, onelia
