tobago, my tara (Free verse) by mitchski
Oh Beautiful Isle,
resilient and luminescent against the world
with a glowing sun raining
silently,
on lucid waters,
saving light for mornings to follow.
Oh Gallant Man,
tanning on the shores of her patience
looming forward
lurching back
pulling his inhibitions out to sea with her,
slowly he rises
sheltering her as she slumbers.
Oh Tearful Reunion,
sifting the potent earth between my fingers
my toes once again falling into step
meeting her once again,
knowing only now a kindred,
knowing only now a home,
far from the one I've known
on this beautiful
where I lay my soul
so long ago.
