Sand Castle (poem) by Tinka Boukes on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on December 23, 2005

Staggering, Tinka... fair takes the bubbles out of all me Christmas fizz-pop, but perhaps a little relieved to see the 2003 copyright... perhaps that sandcastle has been removed to the rock by now, and is weathering a little better... I certainly hope so; if not, just gotta build higher and better, I guess! You certainly know how to create emotion-filled writes that build up and then leave us awash with swirling eddies and sandstorms! Every tear precious and stored in a diamond bottle, Tinka. Ha-ha-p-pyyyy Chr-christ-ma-ma-assss ....xxxxxxxx K xx

Beautiful, but so sad, Tink. I have trouble knowing if you are really sad or if you are just the queen of melancholy poetry. You are that. I wish I could cheer you up. Anyway, have some Season cheer and enjoy the Holidays. Lovely pic, poem and song. Love and [[[[[[[[hugs]]]]]]]

Sweet words of sadness that linger in the mind but ache in the heart with a longing to make things better...even knowing that only love and time can do that.
That is good picture of you too Tinka.

Tinka...I can only guess that you write from hard experience here...and yes, this is a sad piece but brutally real, for anyone who has been there. Composition wise, this is an excellent piece of work...you flow of imagery and rhythm is splendid.
