An Island: James Adamson

07/11/2017 ~ kaleidoscopeonline

To Gwyneth, with Love

The planet is like an island
when it seems we never meet
I venture into a world
of unattainable sea froth, the stars
floating on incredible distance
the sand still between my toes
and I have got to risk my life
to find you.
