It’s the final #waterpoemproject poem. Thank you, Laura Shovan and all the contributing prompt writers!
Like most everybody else, I’m experiencing lots of upheavals lately! I have no huge National Poetry Month plans–just hoping to share an imagepoem here each day (or as often as I can). I’m participating in Laura Shovan’s awesome #WaterPoemProject the best I can, so most of my poems will come from either that or from the PAD (Poem A Day) Challenge at Writers Digest. Grateful for the distraction of poetry and friends!

I love this one! The voice of the sea chanting, “Be brave!” Thanks!
Thanks, Margaret. I wanted “whisper.” “Say” is so boring and not comforting. Dang syllable count!
Such perfectly chosen words for this image, Laura. The poem, I know, caused my heartbeat to slow and to savor the hope and comfort you expressed. I will carry this image and your words throughout my day. Thank you.
Oh, thank you, Kim. Rudyard Kipling’s Seal Lullaby has that same effect on me. I love hearing that a draft of mine does that for someone. <3
