This is the best Island Dreams of all. Every poem rewritten; four new poems added: "Angels of Bahama Land," "Mr. Mather," "Luci's Cheer," and "The Islands Call," More photos. This Edition brings us full circle. This Edition brings us back home. Island Dreams III-My Life As A Boy-Bahamas 43rd Independence Edition was meant to capture and freeze one moment in time that has shaped and given us all such a vision of the Bahamas. The same vision that my grandfather saw as he looked at mangoes growing so beautifully on the trees; the pride of a beautiful brown sapodilla as he admired the taste and aroma of one bite; the papayas, golden orange as the sun basked down upon them; the sweet smell of the sugar apples ripening on the tree; and ooooohhh the Sour Sop dripping with pure delight. May we remember the crabbing season, the hauling nets, and yes the smell of the sea grapes filling us with such sweet desire. This is our home land; this is the shores that beckon us all back; this is the land of Pindling, Hannah, and Cecil. This is our Bahama Land!! Foreword by: Dr. Donald M. McCartney, D.M. Cover photo by Mr. Tavar Major. Randy E. Simmons is married to Lucimar Simmons and they have six children Jonathan, Randi, Hope, Nayara, Faith and Mayara. They have four grandchildren Kaniya, Noah, Aria and Kierra. They live in West Palm Beach, Florida and Brazil.

Island Dreams was meant to capture and freeze one moment in time that has shaped and given us all such a vision of the Bahamas- the same vision that my grandfather saw as he looked at mangoes growing so beautifully on the trees...the pride of a beautiful brown sappa dilly as he admired the taste and aroma of one bite....the papayas, golden orange as the sun basked down upon them....the sweet smell of the sugar apples ripening on the tree....and ooooohhh the sour sop dripping with pure delight. May we remember the crabbing season... the hauling nets...and yes the smell of the sea grapes filling us with such sweet desire...this is our home land.....this is the shores that beckon us all back...this is the land of Pindling....and Cecil...this is our Bahama Land....and with that I say: "MARCH ON BAHAMA LAND!!"

See how the world marks the manner of your bearing! Pledge to excel through love and unity. Pressing onwards, march together to a common loftier goal; Steady sunward, tho' the weather hide the wide and treacherous shoal. Lift up your head to the rising sun, Bahama land, 'Til the road you've trod lead unto your God, MARCH ON, BAHAMA LAND."

In all cultures and times, the poetic imagination has fed on the natural attributes of islands. An island is either a destination, or a home, or a place of exile and imprisonment, or simply a place to sojourn. It is an ideal vehicle for journeys treated as allegories, or for acts of finding that turn into acts of losing, or the reverse transformation. An island is not a continent; yet it can be an archipelago. An island is both a place in itself and a pretext for imaginings that need a local habitation and a name. It can give relief, and pleasure; or it can frustrate, isolate, and negate. Above all, it both invites and resists - or contains or constrains - the imagination. Poetry and Islands explores how islands become repositories of human longings and desires, a locus for some of our deepest fears and fantasies. It balances historical and geographical reference with a selective approach to poems and poets in English, and in translations into English. The study of particular poems in which islands figure in exemplary ways is balanced by a more detailed discussion of the poets who have played a major role in shaping human responses to islands on a global scale.
