Three Islands

Three Islands

through the creek and those weeds
we carried him to his new home
to rule over the land
marked by tower of stone


"King Timothy, his majesty" they cried
what good trinkets did we find?
on three islands


waist deep in water and thorns
carried that weight back with us


into the new world

into the warm night

Into your arms

King Timothy, his majesty
King of three islands


- C. Gunter
