If I could

(Barbados ) If I could run awayit would beto a place like thisa coral seawhere fishermen raisetheir nightly netswhere you and I wouldwake to the morning sundark skin and lighta tangle of limbs. If I could stop the worldget off where I pleaseit would be at a place like thiswhere the sand is perfectly roundand the angel fish feedon live coral reefwhere the yachts anchor nightlyunder a Venus skyand my lover lies sleepingby my side  If I could come backas a sand crab burrowingnext to turtles eggscarrying away my lover’s nestwatching the tidal moon nightly setor a dolphin following boatsacross the bayblowing the sunlightriding the waveswatching my dolphin children play. If I could I surely would.
