beyond the scattered seashells and driftwood, some souls drift upon endless waves forever searching the shoreline, seeking safe harbor the setting sun sinks all but the most resolute so when the boat is sinking it pays to know how to float, and where to find safe harbor |

Yo dear Kacy, I'll never forget the day I learned how to float. It's very relaxing. Love Bobby |

Everyone is looking for a safe harbor, some just don't know how to find it. After reading this poem I would say that you do. Ida |

We really need to enjoy the floating, safe harbors are a temporary experience. Intense write, dear Kacy. Love, Margherita |

Kacy, I believe, like Ida, that you have found several safe harbours, and I am happy for that. I loved your poem, the peace, the reassurance, the philosophical thought behind it and the beautiful picture you painted. - Owl |
