Notes About The Poem

Floating In the Blue

And in my dream-   I am floating in fantasy blue,
            where calm aqua water caresses my tranquility;
and the vistas are wondrous below the deep misty azure sky,
      oh, I am drifting toward a tropical secluded island.

            Submerged above, below, around in splendor,
and my spirit comes gliding as a lovely white bird hovering;
      oh, utterly beautiful is this island of emerald green.

           Little fish like gems come to kiss my toes with love;
there are no crashing waves, no sounds, just sweet stillness,
        and in my dream-  I am floating in a fantasy.

From your vivid description, I should think you have spent some time in the Caribbean, Dear Heart. Now you've made me eager to return. Want to come along? You know how I love fish, so the thought of them kissing our toes is truly a delight. Congratulations on your win in Brian's contest! Hugs, Carolyn
