Lost World

Lost World Wayward ships lost in stormy seas Oceans of emptiness begging please Ripples of tides in various degrees Liquid cooled blue Icelandic freeze Desperate land watered down trees Capsized cruise on a beach unknown Reality sets in now left all alone Unseen distances of sand and stone Island so empty with green overtones Skeleton ship full of broken bones Embracing life a castaways new home Written for contest: World Cruise (Acrostic) 10/04/17 WON 3rd PLACE IN CONTEST RESULTS
