In a Far Away Island

It happened when I traveled to Fantasia, Riding in an old ship called Galactica, There’s a super storm name Nympha, That’s why our ship turned into pieces, That’s the beginning of my endless stories. It’s my 10 years alone in a far away island, Surrounded by the most beautiful sands, My way of living is so simple and a little bit hard, But I overcome it and I survived as God is my guard. One day while I’m having my hearty lunch, I heard a loud sound from a distance, It’s a helicopter with some soldiers, They are here!! At last my rescuers! Before I leave the unforgettable place, I would take with me my precious old necklace, An old paper with my ten years of hand writings, And a white single shell with a beautiful carvings During my stay in a mysterious world, Memorable things make me go on living, For they are my strength and it really my treasured, I will cherish all the experiences and sufferings, Today I feel happiness in my heart and the pain finally cured. October 30, 2013 For Shadow Hamilton's "What Would You Take " contest 5th Place Winner
