I'm commenting again because I gave this a 10 and it didn't appear. I'll try again now. If it doesn't show, will someone please message me and tell me if I'm doing it wrong? Thanks.

This is a lovely poem. It flows well and you have created very nice images and I like your use of metaphor. Very nice indeed.

This is really a good poem, Vanessa. This is a tragic irony that people deep like ocean have to live with shallow waters. Regards Naseer
