Favorite Quote:
If it is to be, it is up to me.


If I could sail the ocean blue
Across the room to get
To you
I'd unfurl my white sails proud and
High
In a surrender to your soul.
If I landed on your island of mystery
It would all go down in history
As time unravels by and by
I have made you my one goal.


The author's comments:
This piece is cool because it has a double meaning. I am writing from the perspective of Columbus, but it's also a love poem about a timid secret admirer.
