Across the distant shores
Where Silence dwells with Solitude,
A place I have been before,
Where Peace had been my daily food.
Soothing songs of palm trees
Dancing with Tranquility
Sways my hammock gently
And restful Sleep comes easily.
As blue waves kiss the shore,
And salty air embraces me,
Caress my very core -
Mermaid songs of the Sea.
In my island far away,
I always have companions.
Share my time, know my ways
Shape my thoughts and my opinions.
I will never be alone,
For they are in this island.
My pen, my books, my phone -
As I take the trip in my mind.
