Notes About The Poem

Why Is the Ocean Blue and Sometimes Green?

I'll Always Remember You From Ashore

I'll Always Remember You From Ashore

I'll forever look out at the sea
And see you waving
And though I like what I see
I could never ride your waves
Like a seal
I could never undress my feelings for you
Because you had ... so many other seals
The ebb and flows
The low tides
It caught me just in time
More than you'll ever know
My heart hurts at the imperfections of life
... and the mysteries of the sea

This is so oceanic and so soulful, i felt the emotions flowing throughout your well woven words. And the picture youv used is stunning’ I especially felt the line “ My heart hurts at the imperfections of life ... and the mysteries of the sea“ so evocative! Loved this

This poem and analogy is a story of a potential suitor who wore a different suit. I wrote as if I were writing to him and the story of my life. Ty for your lovely comment.
