PS Syllable Counter used for my poem.

Beach

Salt air lingers as the tide breathes in,
Whispers of waves caress my skin,
Dawn’s gold light paint ocean’s blue,
Twilight smiles a red hue
Gulls soar on the breeze,
Shell memories,
Smiling hearts
Beach love
Bliss.

Ken, tried to Soupmail and couldn’t. It was to say you need to add the last line, one syllable word to complete the Nonet of nine lines. Needs a Buzz… Beryl
