I love that your inspiration came from a picture in a psychiatric hospital. It describes the emotions of life perfectly. The storms come, but they do pass and leave some chance for hope. Well written.

What a lovely poem. Life is so very much like this...powerful and full of beauty, footprints of a stranger who may or not become a friend, peace and yet a chance of tumult...stormy weather settling in... Still we keep going, garnering strength and
regaining balance...

I love this poem because your words paint a picture. The meaning and words in your poem were Amplified by the imagery in the poem ..".. pull of the, choppy grass blows in the Wind, Rumble of Thunder mixed with switching..." all of this poetic verbiage helps me to experience the words on a deeper and more personal level. I am definitely able to relate to it because I suffer from depression but like you - the pain is a great motivator for me.. I find some of my best poetry comes from when I'm in the height of my pain. It inspires me to try to paint and give substance to my emotions and feelings. . Thank you for sharing a portion of your journey and for exposing your vulnerability.

A very well-written poem about the beauty and the power of the ocean and its endless movement. We have to go through storms and rough times to sculpt our character to near perfection.

Nice piece of work .great imagery that draws you into the poem and makes you feel part of what's going on like being on the inside looking out instead just being a reader. Good job

This poem is just as beautifully written as the one I just read from you. I'm no poet, so I can't help you with the mechanics. All I can do is tell you how your poem makes me feel or think.

Evening settles, low rumble of thunder mixed with swishing waves
This is how I perceive my life...
With storms passing, who knows what the morrow will bring?

That's how life is sometimes, unpredictable. You've done a great job describing, informing, and bringing to life this point in your poem. You've done a beautiful job with this. Well done Dove!
