Yes. One can't pause for too long before the next wave overcomes you. Excellent. Liz

�Drowning�

Her stress level is higher

Than a 12 meter oceanic wave

The inner pain that cannot bridge

The turmoil of her life

The tube surrounding her

Comes crashing down on her

Within the tunnel of darkness

Emotionally drowning

In constant sorrows

Once the delight of a Surfer

The pillars she depended on

No longer secure in standing

Upon surfboard of insecurity

A symbolic commentary on our segment of society in twelve short words. The absence of a tube-shooter reflects our daring comes not by power of body but by power of word.

And insightful message with dynamic image. What a pairing!

(((Pea))),

We gather together, ride the wave of words, and look forward to the next (even bigger) wave! I love this one, I love all your words. I love you, most of all. Let's ride! :)

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
