SHELL
bright curl
nestled pearl

echoes held in hush
tide prints the hollow shore
ancient songs shimmer, return

remembrance whispers through spring heart

Wow, this is excellent dear Sotto, really original in the way you've created this. "Echoes held in hush" love those lines and I could really hear the ancient songs! Returning to the shore! Just how remembrance always comes in waves and swathes the heart.. beautiful work! Sending you best wishes for the contest ~ 💫💫
