I waded out as waves unfurled
Their salty gifts on me

Beautiful. So very endearingly emotional. But the transit from First Person to Third Person is left unexplained…

What a lovely poem! The sea has so much of treasure to offer the world. A mesmerizing world full of colourful sea shells, sea weeds, gems and pearls. We must have a keen desire to see the wonders of the vast ocean and eyes that can spot these wonderful gifts of nature. Loved your poem, dear beach Girl......10

according to one of my comments, below, i used this in Section B of November 2015's showcase. but i would use it again, BUT it is longer than i want now in showcases, unless i shorten it by leaving out part of it. you don't have to give me a poem which is already on PH! do you have one from another site, or tucked away in a notebook, preferable a poem of not much more than 25 lines? this one has 36 lines. bri :) or pick a shorter one from your PH list; it is ok if it has been used before this showcase.

Bri and KB, thank you both. Some time back I corrected my error of misusing the word laid. Bri, I think your first comment was concerning the word 'flout', which I'm still trying to correct.

A very good poem (never mind Bri’s meanderings) The tenses did flip. But as Bri said it was a minor error. Read mine – Who Am I – Adeline

I like this poem a lot, it's a lovely story about the sea and the love the girl has for the sea. It was fun to read, it flows nice and I like the rhyming. Although I'm not sure what the last stanza means, it still sounds dreamy. Darla :)

I really like this poem, although I have to agree with Bri Edwards about the use of the word FLOUT. It doesn't really make sense as used here. Also, in the second line of verse seven, you should use LAY instead of LAID. Sorry, I can't help it. I used to be an English teacher. Great work, however! Keep writing.

I see that she has made both changes that you suggested. Good work, former English teacher!
