A very well-written Naani. Great four lines within the 25 syllable limit. Modern technogy made it possible for us to communicate with others on the other side of the ocean.

I counted 24 syllables, well within the limits imposed by the Naani poetic form of 20-25.
The flow and rhyming are excellent for a poem of such short length.
I believe you just might have a top contender here for the win.

nice. This feels like a tribute to Fanstory, indirectly. Lovely presentation. Nice bonus rhymes and fine medley of S sounds and W as well. Good imagery, tone and pacing. A contender. Good luck!

Warmly, rd

Great photo with your message. I think the world
moves fast upon the salty breeze is clever word usage.
I hope the kindred spirits can pray for peace. Good entry.

This is an excellent poem. I like that you used the ocean to emphasize the strengh of our words and relate it to salty breeze. I can envision this in many ways and feel the salty breeze myself.
