Shallow Waters~ (poem) by Erica Ivory on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on October 31, 2003

Very nicely done! See my poem "Casting in the Shadows". It is
similar to yours. Darkness sometimes overcomes us, no matter how
hard we try. I can feel the deep pathos in this piece, and I can
wholeheartedly relate.

Erica this is so beautiul.
"As I float on the top of shallow waters..
That somehow..
imprisoned my mind and soul..
Left here alone to die..
Drifting on shallow tides."

When life quits on you, the best recourse is to go in search of another universe. There is always another one, you know. Very good poem, here.

Hi Erica, loved this, and I think it shows how it all feels sometimes, just sheer lunacy, hehe, the water always too shallow to swim and yet can be drowned in,

a telling write, when in rip tide one must swim to the side to get out even the strongest swimmer drown trying to swim to shore.. great write.. gave me poise to think maybe I need in my own life to stop fighting the currents and swim side ways as well

"~Shallow Waters~"... I am sure that Proteus will become a kind boy and will rescue his mother, and that Poseidon will keep the waves in low speed to enable the boy to swim with a single hand.

I enjoyed this masterpiece, Poet!
