Sibuyan Island (original poetry)

Sibuyan Island




Two suns
One mango, one fire
spill morning’s nectar
down my browned arm

Sticky and free -

These blue plains
wedded,
still;
I bathe in canopy




Health and Love, always

The two suns thing. You so consistently and effortlessly recast ordinary things. It makes you a natural poet. The structure of language is only ornamentation for poetry. Its core is what you do naturally, refresh the world by seeing even the simplest things in new ways. It's a gift that creates value in everyday life even when it's sad, like collarbone lakes.

Thank you so much @mdbrantingham! Really appreciative of you taking the time to read my words, cant wait to read more of your work.

Nice. The tropical imagery makes me miss living in Hawaii. I was too young to enjoy it, sadly.

Oh man, that's so cool that you lived in Hawaii? Which island?

Yeah but I was a kid then so I really couldn't get around. It was Oahu. That is where the base was.

Big blue, flat, sea level water from coast to coast & golden suns gifting freckles to the beautiful people below 😊

Let me receive all the freckles!!
