Your first stanza is the one I have read.many times, means so much to someone in love. A beautiful poem throughout, security of love and someone who is beside you is rare these days. ❤️ we are all.our own boat yet sometimes it\'s important to know we are not alone. Thank you.

If this is what you write about when you have nothing to say Michael I cannot wait to read your words when you have something to say.

I don\'t even have to empathise - just am in that state most of the time.
Oh so well writ here.

Clever and a good message. Being open to opportunity and making the best of it. A great metaphor and very positive.

The Sea is a Mistress
Bella Shepard said:

A sea tale as old as time, told in such vivid verse. Rich in imagery, I can see the colors and feel the salty spray. I think I can even hear a concertina being played in the background. A beautiful poem, an outstanding piece of literature!

The Sea is a Mistress
sorenbarrett said:

A wonderful poem litterally but in metaphor even grander. It speaks of life\'s adversity and hope that is rewarded but not to the extent of giving up the struggle of going on even after victory. So well penned.

The Whys of Jack and Jill
peto said:

Jack and jill
Went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water
Jill forgot
To take the pill
And now they\'ve got a daughter

Forgive me pop
Couldn\'t resist
Love your slant on this
