Tuvalu, My Heart's Home Poem by Ronni ManoaHofbauer

In the embrace of the endless sea,
Tuvalu calls, a home to me,
With skies of blue and sunsets bright,
Your shores are woven in my light.

From Funafuti's vibrant shores,
To the legends that our spirit adores,
The wind breathes stories of days long past,
In each rolling wave, your hopes are cast.

Though Australia stretches wide and vast,
In my heart, your spirit is steadfast,
With laughter shared beneath the palms,
Your love surrounds me, a soothing balm.

The coral hues beneath the sun,
A tapestry of life, woven as one,
I carry your songs in every breath,
In distant lands, you conquer death.

Your waters sing, the stars align,
In every pulse, your heart is mine,
No matter where the tides may flow,
Tuvalu's love, forever I'll know.

So here I stand, with open arms,
Embracing both worlds, their unique charms,
For Tuvalu, my precious gem,
Will always shine within my stem.

In every sunset, every tide,
Tuvalu, you'll forever reside
In the depths of my soul, where love will bloom,
A cherished heart, wherever I roam.
