Sonnet to Home by Annabel Sheila Friday, June 22, 2012 Rated "G" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan Going home in August for a week...can't wait...Newfoundland is always in my heart...she's part of me....an unbelieveably beautiful pristine island...a little rugged yes...but incredible to see....

To tread upon her rugged shore Caressed by a restless sea. Linger beside a pristine brook Just the trees, the breeze and me! To wander through open meadows Where wildflowers paint the scene, Feel the warmth of a sunshine kiss On a carpet of emerald green! To gaze upon mountains old as time, Splendid hues of green and blue! Peaks that seem to touch the clouds And very often do! To hear the birdsong melodies Freedom beneath their wings! Air so fresh and pure and clean Your heart is sure to sing! There’s not another place on earth More near and dear to my heart And even when I’m away from home Newfoundland is in my heart! © Annabel Sheila

Strange, but Newfoundland has always been a place I wanted to see. I never got around to it, darn it. I believe I will take a trip there soon after I win the Powerball. All kidding aside Newfoundland and Tangiers have been two places I've wanted to visit. I know why I have always wanted to visit Tangiers, because of the movies and it just sounds exotic. Newfoundland? The majestic pictures I've seen of the place called me, too bad I was too busy to find the time to go there. Now I just get to read about it, and this was a superb poem, Anna.

Sounds absolutely beautiful, and what's more important than "beautiful" is peaceful: to have a place on earth for you to restore your soul... Wonderful words, my dear friend. Mark
