Moments and memories linger, even after the waves have receded and the sands have shifted. They are the bedrock of our personal history. Your poetry is indeed art in motion, and I enjoy how your words carry my heart along with their tide. Lovely in form and message, thank you for taking me on this journey with you. Hugs ~ John

Do linger more with such lovely 'scribbling', Brandy. A poem rich in its apparent simplicity. Memories keep coming back to us, like waves coming back to shore...Regards // paul

What is a poet if not a scribbler of words? Your words evoke powerful emotion. I thoroughly enjoyed this.

Yes, I completely agree. It seems that I enjoy scribbling outside the lines. :) Poetry is Art in Motion. Painting a picture through words and emotions. Thank you Jesse for your kind thoughts. They are appreciated. ~ Brandy

Way more than a scribble; it's a wondrous moment in time and it took me away, too. Well done.

Even withOUT the shape you have conveyed the emotion of a washing of waves on the shore ... very difficult imagery to get across successfully, and once again, with an economy of words. I so admire that, Dear Brandy - this is exquisite! I am TRYing to write "shorter" pieces, and it is very difficult for me ... I love, (and write a lot of), Haiku, so I enjoy maximizing word usage, but keeping other writes to a minimum is tough for me, (I shall get there!). You inspire me - always! Blessings! <3

Dear Greg, as the words flowed- from the heart of me, it seemed that moments took shape. It wasn't planned. It is easy to create a mood, the imagery of a moment- with less. Your style is yours and it is brilliant. Lovely and expressive. Thank you for your wonderful comment. Your thoughts are appreciated. :) Brandy

Keep reaching- for I am throwing that tutti-frutti lifesaver out to you. Lol. Unless- you want to drown in these poetic waves. Perhaps you do. Very wet of me? Is that so?? In waves of the waters touch- of course I am wet. Oh my!! Thank you for your thoughts WW. My scribbles are simply that- scribbles from the heart. :) Love & Waves. ~ Brandy
