Always open and welcoming.
The Isle of Sleep
at night we gather
and load from a dock
we all grip the oars
and paddle really hard
we cross rivers
and ford seas
until we reach
the isle of sleep
there we land
and cast anchors out
we slide to a stop
and set our feet down
we enjoy the break
and the sun on our faces
a calming land
that always amazes
and then, when it’s time
we climb back on the boat
and paddle back home
waking ready to go
Day or night, may it be great.
