Unanchored Boat

The boat floats, alone on the lake Unanchored but so far away That boat soon held emotions close Alone on the lake, the boat floats Isolated, drained emotions Dark clouds, stained waters, depression At once dreams are devastated Drained emotions, isolated Radiant beams, pierced the darkness Sunlight penetrated hardness Those joyous tears streamed; light extreme Pierced the darkness, radiant beams Feelings of love, swiftly returned The boat wasn't alone unanchored Above flew the white Turtledove Swiftly returned feelings of love Written: March 03, 2014 Sponsor: Andrea Dietrich Contest: A Swap Quatrain: Let's See What You've Got

Sara, the content of this poem is fabulous. I just wish you had done more exact rhymes on the end lines, and I'd have scored it higher. Wonderful title for this poem about the power of love.
