Farewell Poem by Jazlle D. H. **contentment is the key to happiness

Farewell

Rating: 4.4


The love that emerges from the gloomy land
and rises out of a sea of chimera is gone
The boat of love is now ready to sail
away from the isle of illusion
The sail will catch the wind,
propel and maneuver the boat
It will take time to find the island of hope
and in this voyage the boat will face circumstances
nights and days, rain or shine
even storms and tidal waves
but the boat of love will continue its journey
until it reaches the shore of a new beginning…

Lovely sentiment. A voyage away from percieved love through tempest to end on the shore of true love.

A great poem in terms of art and thought. It takes me back to Yeats: 'And therefore I have sailed the seas and come To the holy city of Byzantium.'

Joan...This one is very good! I have sailed before, and your poem draws similarities between love and a journey very nicely. Well done! Hugs, Dee
