For the memories still afloat"

It seems Belle, that no matter what you look at, it becomes a muse somehow for your pen. You are quite the sensitive visual writer.

Beautifully done ...

Susan

I like both Fee and Eileen's take on this wistful composition..

Nostalgia is to the fore, but there is also a glimmer of hope that Destiny will surely bloom again in the most mysterious way..

Love the symbolic graphic..

Love

A lone boat, discarded. There are many humans like it. But beauty survives. Victor

superb metaphor, Susan ... youth looks forward to voyages ahead, unaware of the dangers and the potential of sinking, ... age encompasses the memory of experiences and widsom to keep it afloat ...

A great nostalgic poem. It kind of separates the things that remind us of old times and the old times themselves.

Ah there is somthing about the water, boats and or ships that stir the heart of the romantic soul. The water speaks of far away longing sand the ships and boats of either escape from love gone wrong or a race to love to come. The sea is like a liquid cupid just waiting to stir the waves of love.
Well done Susan my siren of the sea.
