is the ocean ever living or does it die
when the beautiful waves crash down do they cry

the ocean goes through hardships like we do in our lives

harsh storms
peaceful times
getting hung up in the fishing lines

sometimes its easy
sometimes its hard
sometimes some people cant get very far

but we live and learn
and we make mistakes
sometimes we get burned
but we do what it takes

we go through the harsh storms
and the peaceful times
we get hung up in the fishing lines

but thats life and thats death
its all of these things

we have to stick together no matter what life brings

that is very good.  You are an excellent poet, I would like to meet you one day.  Do you wrestle? I was just wondering. A snow man just barked at me and I wet myself.

The lack of punctuation made this extremely hard to navigate through.  And please learn the difference between its and it's.

No it's not personal preference.  It's means it is.  Its is the possesive its.  My gosh...

And this piece does stand well without punctuation regardless of what all the people who repeatedly say "I love this" are saying.

When it comes to grammar, "personal preference" does not exist.  "Its" and "it's" aren't even close in meaning.  You need to use them in the correct way because if someone doesn't know that it is "purposful", (check the spelling of that too while you're at it, I believe there's an "e" in there somewhere) you may come across as unintelligent (for lack of a better term).  you're gonna be mad at me now aren't you?

I'm sorry to stop the bickering in this post..but there is no such thing as it's.  Its never has an appostrophe...it is always just its.  
Now for the poem  ... I really enjoyed it.   The repetition of:

harsh storms
peaceful times
getting hung up in the fishing lines

makes its stronger and gives an impact.  I liked the fishing lines too...it gave me a new way  to look at htings.. Thanx for the read!!

I am your God, will you kill me now or shall I be continually suicidal?

Actually you are entirely wrong.  Get your information straight, because the more you say things like that the more people may doubt your education.

Nice job Liz.  I think it's great. (Yes, "it's" as in "it is". LOL)  But I'll just leave it at "Nice job" as to avoid the arguement over correct punctuation.  This could get ugly (Just kidding!)

*Me*
I'm pasteing my smile back on just to please you...  I always knew Elmer's glue was good for something...
