Broncos' \6ice ^ March 1997 ■ ^ r. ' “ __ '•'V^ & A 5v'\' T/ze Island hy Natasha Etienne Oh how I wish I could return to the island A place where each day is sunny and troubles are afar I long to lay along the sandy beaches commenting on the world outside while watching the radiant sun slowly sink beyond the western waves. On the island, I knew times of grand joy and bathed in friendships of peace and love. Tropical birds prourded an orchestra of songs in the evenings as 1 sat sipping fruit juices and talking incessantly of the things I would one day do. Today I am far removed from the island and life is quite different. So many trials, so much tribulations, so many challenges to basic survival Days are hard, nights are too often sleepless and streets are mean My tormented soul is adrift in a wasteland of uncertainty and deceit. But I think tonight will be a good night—for I am going to close my eyes, lie down, calm my soul and imagine for a time that I am back on the island And tomorrow when I wake lam going to go out into the world with a new covenant I am going to make my own island and be the proprietor of its endless fruits of joy For I have discovered the island lives within me!
