 I feel it’s good a time to end the day when sea merges its gray into the sky – I long to disappear somewhere away where futile dreams won’t ever let me cry. But my boat sails lose wind though hard I try to hold fast the ropes to steer me on course and I drift aimless as an empty sigh the rhythmic sound of waves a silent force The darkened mountains have cut off light’s source their brooding shadows shroud my solitude they match my mood, escape is no recourse surrender to madness mere interlude I tuck myself to meld into the night have faith that nature’s calm will be my light. @jjote 07/19/2016 |

Your words put the picture in motion. Enjoyed the gray watercolors. |

Very deep sonnet jjote, weaving those words around to give the reader chills, but there is a light at the end, and that is very good.. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

"I tuck myself to meld into the night have faith that nature’s calm will be my light." Wow, heartfelt words. JL  Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. |

You write such lovely poetry and always with such nice pictures too! If I were more than I am, I'd see things differently instead of the same all the time. |
