Leaving the Island

My last chapter of island living,

Sadly, surrenders my wonderful house…

Along with all my beloved possessions,

And yes, that devious Mouse!

Refusing to be island bound,

We used float planes and the ferries…

Our souls floated on air and water,

As each destination varies.

I will miss this island’s good friends,

And fear the future of living alone…

Yet strangely what I’ll miss the most,

Is a ferry, bringing me home.
