Having read this Nonet with all its beautiful reminders of time by the sea I simply long to be there too amid 'Sacred waters' - let's hope we get that opportunity before summer's end

I really liked the imagery in this piece, and I loved your descriptions of the beach and the sea. You made me feel as though I was there. I thought this was well written and I thought that your writing flowed well.

Beautifully written, making me long for this summer water activities if only the COVID confinement would let us taste some fun this year. The pace of the poem was well measured and rhythmic. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts.

    Thank you so much for the excellent review and kind comments. We were very fortunate as the beaches were open and so was our timeshare. It's not the same right now as many of the larger beaches have closed once again. I'm glad I could spend a little sunshine on you!!

This work has reached the exceptional level

Very good use of precise and descriptive words. They so aptly convey each subject like the notes of a melody,setting the mood. Also, a perfect picture to illustrate.

Lovely poem and great song! The beach is indeed a wonderful place to be. I've been at the Thailand beaches many times. At night with all the sparkling stars is so peaceful.
