Aww...so sad. I really like the imagery, it forms a contrasting picture of where you wanted to be versus where you were.

Very descriptive. I like how you compare and contrast being in NYC to being on an island.

This reminds me of my friends and me. We like to sit on the roof and watch the clouds and the sky...except we live in Idaho, so instead of hearing Times Square we hear a creek behind the house and instead of seeing the lights of the city, we see the lights of the stars. But I suppose both views are quite beautiful. Lovely poem!
