Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Tides

Alert we wake to a morningtide

Bright-eyed inside, when it rains noontide

We downed a few

All drunk we knew

We danced to wrong homes at eveningtide

Hi William: This is a unique poem that I guess when you had the thought , you wrote it rapidly. My compliments! Read my carpe diem again, I changed it.
