Hi mike
Yup I can relate to that! Ladies do have a way of washing us in and our with their emotional tide. We are just flotsam and jetsam at its mercy sometimes, but is there a better way? Try to find one and we sink!
Great poem, nicely put together.
Best Wishes
Keith

    I'm trying to use this as an example so I kept mention of being dashed upon the coral out of it. Thank you very much for your compliments and this review.

Very sweet and it seems very heartfelt, can't find anything wrong with this, so have some stars! I especially liked the lines 'hen pushed away, I'm
never more alone.'

    Thank you very much for the stars, compliments and this review. This one is heartfelt and even many of the members here can draw concern when the have to take leave. "'When pushed away, I'm never more alone," is a feeling that is generated from someone who truly cares.

I like the contrast of each stanza. It flows well and is easy to read and understand.

It brings pictures to mind of opposites in moods and behavior. It is well done.

Great poem poet. Thanks, jeanette

I enjoyed the sail while reading this one. Your simple word choice and straightforwardness enhance your message. I just love the last stanza. Great job!

    I have a few poems in my portfolio that involve sailing as an analogy. You could say that this was penned for the mind of a salty dog and you are correct. I didn't want truth to be interperated. Thank you very much for your compliments and this review.

I think this is a sweet little poem and a stanza or two could easily be used in a greeting card, Valentines Day or simply an I Love You card. I'm serious. The stanza are just short and sweet enough to work. I also got a chuckle over the author notes. Fun read. Sincerely, Dean

Fantastic job. You describe a man's relationship with a woman in quite a real way. Tis true, If you lady isn't happy, you're not going to be happy. Judy

what a sweet poem. my favorite verse:

"I try to bring your
moods into a pool
to float restfully,
a wise man or fool"

great imagery. the last verse is the strongest and should be. very well done.
