Excellent

We see the beauty of nature and think of the sorrow of our lives as well. Somehow the understand both very well, but cannot resolve the dilemma, and our sorrow remain.

I am absolutely positive that you are loved. Thank you for sharing this complete package with us. I have often felt as I sat and watched the waves melancholy but soon, I am feeling better the longer I sit.

This was a wonderful 'Jiyu-shi poem', Gypsy. The dual pictures were great because they showed the after rocks all piled neatly, balanced evenly. They also showed a young girl sitting on a beach wrapped in a blanket. Your words made so much sense to me. Blessed Be n Hugs!!!

We all need to know that we are loved, though love has many different faces, it is our memories of that one that we fall back on, a beautiful read, very well presented****kahpot

Loved the answer to prayer in this Jiyu-shi poem. Great use of alliteration of S-sounds which added to the cold feeling of the gray morning. But the breeze and the wave affirmed that the narrator was indeed loved.

Another fine poem, Gypsy....desolate sea breaks upon a desolate shore. An excellent picture reflects to the reader the blues the writer wants to share with all of us.
