DISTANT    DREAM

That  was  in  my  mid -life
my  cherished  distant  Dream!

That  some  day  
I  would  voyage  for  some  Oceanic  visit
or    emigrate  to  an    distant   island  life
where,  the    velvet -blue -  sky    on   horizon
kisses     the    island -lips !

Or ----------
the  early  morning  Sun
on  the  fore-head  of the Island -Green
suggest  like  the  vermilion  crimson  dot
of    an  oriental  virgin  just   betrothed  !

And  staying where
 my   volatile    love  voyaging  within
wound    dance  or swing
rhyming with  my   wavy  flowing  blood !
