Happy Island

It is good on this island
 
Where such hands good to hold
 
Warm pride for hearts cold
 
Poetry many men band.
 
 
 
Great men, great IQ
 
Flourish my time with meaning
 
Myriad thoughts in a simple Haiku
 
A wonderful  feeling healing.
 
 
 
Bard friends hold my hand
 
In you, I find solace
 
Every criticism, a sweet gland
 
It's poetry, not a race.
 
 
 
On your reviews, my points build
 
They tell me 'Reach for the sky'
 
 Glad I in your poetry guild
 
So much love I may not buy.
 
 
 
I 'll never leave this land
 
So much poetry circle bind
 
Great feats on time's sand
 
My  love of poetry is blind.
