I'M Thinking of a Place

I’m thinking of a place, a place far away, far away from here as I sail through the night, a place where you are in my sight. Yeah, I’m thinking of a place where I see you so clear, not here, but there. Yeah, I’m thinking of a place sailing through the cool night air, getting closer to that place far away where I’m going someday. Yeah, I want to go, have to go to that place far away where I’ll hear you say, “I love you too.” By: Carole O'Terry Duet Copyright: 2018 "All Rights Reserved"

Came back to check out your entry again. I remember that I really liked it when I saw it again. I got inspired by seeing all the other people's poems. Sure wish more winners got put up.

Hi Andrea. This was not the entry for the "concrete" contest. "Blocked" was. However, I'm glad you tried and read this one. Carole

Yeah, thanks for the idea to make it look like a sailboat but it must be too late for the contest. That's ok. It's not that important to me. I just write whatever and whenever something comes to mind. Carole :D

Physical and metaphysical follow one another, each in their own time and for their own purpose for life is a continuation. Carole you are a brilliant poet, I feel the want in your words, such imagery this conjures. For me this is a definite fave, one to be read again, and song choice is perfect.....Maria xxx

Thank you so much for your sweet comment, Maria. You're an angel. I must admit the song inspired the poem...along with my muse, of course. Carole :D xox
