Ahh, like those turbulent waves yearning yet distant, intertwined between serenity and complex dimensions, oscillating as atoms of space, but still feeling 'life' somewhere.. This is really a very deep and stunning one liner poem dear, you've said so much within so few words.. Absolutely loved reading it.. I adore the oceanic Imageries..

Valsa, your poetry is a gem of skill. In a few words, you captured the essence of existence, establishing a riveting analogy between its complexity and the sea's lavishness.

The sea, of many surfaces and depths...we are soulmates -- eddies, currents and whirlpools. Great analogy!

ah, the 'betwixt and between' of our daily lives. I loved those words...and the metaphorical comparison to the sea. Sometimes, I, too, feel like a tumultuous sea...but not always sedate. Well done, dear Valsa. enjoy your weekend, Sara

Dearest Valsa, you have perfectly, through your metaphor of the sea, described the ambivalence we experience almost on a daily basis - "betwixt" and between. You always find descriptive words that are fresh and not overused! What a wonderful talent! This is both elegant and poignant like the rocking motion of a boat on the sea! Have a feeling it will do well in the contest, dear friend! Best wishes for the contest! Blessings on your continued poetic voyage! On point as usual!

I think we all feel that way on most days. A mix of emotions and experiences, some good, some bad, some neutral. You expressed it well

It is by going through these turbulent thought currents , that we might seek peace, love, joy, in a tossing sea that is out to sink the ship that brings love, and the good news of the One to calm the storms, wind and waves : )

How beautifully you’ve expressed how you are feeling today. Absolutely love this one, in few words you’ve conveyed so much, i especially love how you’ve said “ i am like the sea” whoa! “ sedate and rough in turn” deep! I am in awe! Goodluck for the contest.
