Your rhyming is a storming sea of beauty as waving thoughts are warming a belief: there'll be better times. There's a plus side to everything. I knows in today's economy it doesn't seem that way. As history shows, things will change. Well done. Good luck with the contest. Les

Comment from GWHARGIS
I liked the optimistic feeling to this. The use of the sea as a metaphor for life and it's challenges was wonderful. The imagery was great. Nicely done.

Comment from His Grayness
Dear Brooke: Thanks for another delightful work I'm sure will be part of SAWYER'S book which I can't wait to see one day soon. But then there are going to be many years of material, experiences, photos, and emotions to offer life lessons in poetic form and support a true classic book of poetry. That's going to take some time but...Don't forget my copy! Vance

Comment from angelface2
Nice poem about the sea, Brooke. The last time I was near any sea, was in Biloxi a year and a half ago. I love the sound of the waves. Gives a sense of peace, at least when they are not raging. Nice rhythm and the rhyming is very good.

no blessings left to borrow. [love this line; very original]
What! Have you retired Sawyer as your muse? Smile. I'm kidding. I love the angel art image. Or maybe it's a fairy. It's very beautiful.

Thanks so much, amahra. Sawyer joined a union and demanded Sunday off. LOL Just waiting on more pictures of him, and his mom is a huge fairy fan, so I decided to go with fairy art :-) Brooke
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
The abab rhyming is spot on, Brooke, and the flow is as smooth as ice. What a lovely poem, it is nice to know that after the storms the sunshine takes over, and I can't wait for it to happen. Lots of nice imagery in this one, really cheers us up. Good luck in the contest! xsx Sandra

Comment from krys123
Is very optimistic,encouraging and confident promising poem which is also a substantially and lighthearted one at that.
Your ABAB rhyming scheme is done to perfection and neither of your rhymes are forced, labored or strained In your rhythm and flow smoothly to which it makes it easy for me to read your poem clearly. Good luck in the contest and thank you for the Reed and for posting and sharing this for others. May you and yours always be blessed.

Comment from Phyllis Stewart
What a lovely poem of hope! We all can relate, since storms are a part of all our lives, some seemingly unbearable, but the sun does come out if we just wait. :)
