Nostalgia

N ostalgia is truly me ~ as I gaze out to sea ‘tis my middle name O ne day I’ll return to this magical place the Isle from whence I came S uch wistfulness and longing dwell deep inside my heart T oo long my love since you passed on too long we’ve been apart A nd now I’m left here all alone awaiting my call to leave this earth L onging so deep inside it hurts for the moment of my next rebirth G rateful for so many things ~ wisdom and compassion learnt thus far I magination keeps me sane though some may think a tad bizarre A tlantis is my spiritual home one day to return for ‘tis where you are Written 5th November 2020 Contest ANY NEW ACROSTIC ABOUT NOSTALGIA Sponsor Line Gauthier 2nd PLACE Contest COMPLETELY YOUR CHOICE 45 Sponsor Brian Strand 10th Place
