Mccoy's Island

Maybe, it will come true this long-lasting daydream a controlled end – to lay deep at its ocean base like hulls that rocked my days~~~ Maybe, it will come true On sailboat, ship, or yacht The ferrying farrago Journeying to the fathoms Whittling the flesh to go... Maybe, it will come true Fate! Withhold sleep’s surprise Send me blue propitious when gentle ripples lulled floating treehouse wishes~~~ Maybe, it will come true Hammock-nodding with pines In Nylon-sway cocooned Wrapped tight in down; down, down Down to yon's island boon…. (1/23/2021: '88 Sea Ray Sedan Bridge 345; DMS & 'Craig's Contest: Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep')

Sharp imagery that delights but doesn't detract from the dream sequence. Beautifully penned, Susan. ~Sus
