Beautiful!
Lovely imagery and perfect meter and rhyme.

I can picture the crashing waves of the beautiful blue ocean. Your imagery is very strong. I could almost feel the sand between my toes! ;)

Wonderful writing.

Hi Kiddo,
What a great little poem! Reading it, I felt as though I was splashing in the crashing foam myself. You certainly do have a way with words. Very enjoyable. Thanks for sharing.

The picture is beautiful and it matches the poem perfectly. Your poem speaks of the ocean and it beauty. The ocean that is perfect and eternal.

The structure of this poem type provides the perfect rhythm for your poem about the waves of the ocean, as if the two were made specifically for each other
read out loud, this is fantastic
the tranquil view of ebb and flow and undertow - each verse is glorious in its sound

You have done this very well. And taken me to where I also long to be...
near the ocean, watching those beautiful waves crash into the shore.

Well executed and with some great images. Even undertow seems to be a postiive thing in this poem of longing. I liked the color scheme too! This took me away, I could hear the ocean and taste the salt as the waves leapfrog one another along the shore. Ahhhhhh.......Adam

    Adam, so glad you caught the beautiful image! Yeah, just standing at the water's edge and feeling your feet sink into the sand from the undertow is a great feeling. Yes, the simple things in life ARE the best! Thanks so much for your review. Always appreciated...Sue
