shores of forever

The very first line 'sky spills blue' is so capturing. Missed seeing this gem of a poem. Congratulations on your first place win, dear friend. Into my FAVE

Great one. "memories melt in the sea" they really do. The sea has so many baggage and gold mines in it. I see why people go there when they love, mourn or wish to be inspired. It's a mix of everything. It's Life and it's death. Calm and stormy. Congratulations on your win Dear, Ink.

SO lovely! CONGRATS on your win, Ink Empress. Janice

congrats on your win with this gem.

Lovely write, Congrats on your win

Creative lines penned for the contest. Reads like a good contender to me. Way to go. Sara K

A poem that flows endlessly giving us great pleasure in using our imagination. You take us to the sea, with its cool but plenty of visions. Best for a win.

"in butterfly bliss strokes" just breathtaking, the whole poem steals breath, love it

so much substance in just few words...I did relish the languid mood and content of your piece, Ink...wonderful!

I enjoyed reading your lovely/wonderful write. As a child, I would dream about having 2 dolphins as a pet. Great Ending... Sometimes it feels like memories have melted in the blue sea. "Good Luck"  Have a blessed day writing away...........................

Dear Ink this verse is stunningly lovely. You have a remarkable talent for evoking tranquil and beautiful ocean images in your writing, which is evident in this piece. The poem flows beautifully because of how you blended the refrains. Several memories never go away and constantly make an impression on our minds;the place has several beautiful combos, like speckled footsteps and butterfly happiness strokes. Some memories stick with us forever and paint a mental picture. Good luck in the contest.

Awww… Simply and incredibly beautiful Sweet Ink …..love the second stanza especially! Debx

Love this one, Ink. Is it for the contest I am thinking of? Love the way you used short lined. It almost felt like reading haiku.

Sky spills blue across sun speckled footprints…mmmmm the gorgeous weave u create papi!!! memories melt in the sea… damn … the kind of waves u create … In the warm arms of teal ocean splashing across sun speckled footprints… I feel like um taking a walk through a fairy tail full of vibrancy.. memories melt in the sea.. I keep ready this like over n over again … absolutely moving … gorgeous

I like reading this poem of beautiful love. It has a comforting effect.

Amazing write as always …

Love that title, shores of forever... if only there were such a thing.. maybe in heaven there is.. You did this contest really well, you always excel when you write about the ocean and you've created lovely serene imagery here... You combined each refrain really well, as the poem flows so well.. Some lovely pairings here like butterfly bliss strokes and speckled footprints.. some memories never fade and always leave an image on our mind.. Best of luck in the contest..
