Surf utter with thunder
Seaweed quiver in tears of salt
Dancing under the moon

Hi, Laura! How are you doing.? I am doing great! I have gotten a response from The Poetry Soup Team. The situation has been sorted. Thanks for your sharp eye. Congratulations on your poem being futured this week. It is a lovely poem describing the turbulent sea, and like us, " The seaweeds quiver in tears of salt dancing under the moon." It's very inspiring and moving, if they could talk...many sea tales they would tell. Good luck with your great writing. Warmest Regards, Andrew.

Marvelous word choices and stunning imagery! I like the assonance of 'utter/thunder' and your 's' alliteration. BRAVO Laura! Best wishes, Keith
