After the party, I woke up on a tropical island Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Anoucheka Gangabissoon 06/09/2024

Tears behind the cocktails, Rowing down to calmness Oasis was found, Pure life's gratitude I found after my mistake. Confident I feel while I'm breathing loneliness. Awake with open eyes Lonely in a tropical island. Isolated in the middle of the world, I wonder. I wander. Sun shines above me with compassion, but I'm struggling. Lucky that I saw a boat I could call its attention. Amazing I found the gate from beauty to engage reality. Nice to wake up in spite of having a Delightful dream, or a nightmare, sweating in bed.

A very descriptive acrostic, which really created the imagery of an island... Nicely constructed Maria..

Sara, I've just realised that I missed a line somewhere...It's recovered now. Anyway, thank you so much for your delicate words. Hugs/María
