Your poem puts me in the mood of sailing and travel, the image of a sailor who is watching and expressing the scenes, keeping it in his head because soon it will only be a memory. There is sadness going along all the lines. Emotionally written.

GOODNESS, TFT!
Now, THAT is a proper Sonnet … it’s obvious you’ve done your homework.
Your creativity sparks, emotion sings, and diction dances. And, I like your use of elision. Could use a bit’a punctuation.
See critique and edits below:I said I don’t do THIS. POems that behave (STRESS-STRESS / a count long)
that count their beats and…Read More![Profile Photo]()

V3L4 should be: What’s next, a ballad? Maybe, one or two.

Cotton Candy is called Fairy Floss in Australia.
“She tastes like fairy floss”
Fact or fiction, you’re writing is always terrific and always grammatically correct.🌻

Thanks. I think I need to find more meaning in my life. I post everyday and have put together 2 books that no one has read. It’s starting to seem pointless. I may take a break soon or just give up.

Hoi hoi
Love this one.I went to a lezzie bar (one of the first in Amsterdam) with a lady friend of mine. It wasn’t really common for a guy to be there and my bum was lovingly slapped by some of the women on their way to the loo.
That’s why I know that there is always something going on in the loo.
My idea for you would be to drink a little less and love a little more. Love as in making love.
And never give up trying for happiness and very good writes….But hey, it’s only me. I read your writes no matter what.
Kind regards, Gus -
