I love this, made up of a splendid choice of words the tactile feeling is described and then exceeded creating an imagery of the sixth sense in the sixth sense in the last three lines.

Comment from Katie Mae Dead
I like your free verse style Melissa. Your word placing, spacing, subtle internal rhymes
and nice descriptors.
I really love your ending. I think the spaces between words are just as important as the words themselves.
Your imagery is awesome and I felt right there with you.
1 sugg: Start a new stanza on the line "Contentment fills my lungs"
I'm sure Jim would like this.
See you in class.

Comment from lyenochka
Loved this! I feel like you captured that moment of contentment in being oneself in the whole order of the universe between "warm sand and briny froth." That's such a godly attribute "contentment" and a humble acceptance of being God's creation.
Your placement of repetition ("edge") and rhymes ("bind me, define me,") and alliteration of 's' sounds are artfully done!

Comment from June Sargent
What a refreshing poem with great imagery! The beach can be so soothing when we feel the sand and frothy, foamy sea. Take me away! Let me break free!

I love the emotion hidden in this poem. The way you express happiness is very unique. It makes me think about your lines and wonder its emotional depth.
Well done.

Nicely written - very insightful. It sounds like you are talking about being in the present which is a wonderful place to be considering where you were. Great poem and good artwork.
