When She Spoke I Heard a Mournful Sea

Comment by ErinM:
I'm struck by how the shadows and surface ripples add tension to the image, similar to the tension that runs throughout the poem. Very fine work, on all counts.

So many levels of feeling in both the poem and the image - stirring, indeed.

WOW - stunning. This is also reminiscent of one of my favorite melodies

the autumn leaves
drift by my window
the autumn leaves
of read and gold
I feel your lips
and summer kisses
the sunburned hands I used to hold

I won't list the entire song, but man, this is really a great way to bring emotion and words to the heart!!

Well, obviously, it isn't as good as the original, but then of course its score was much bigger, so that was a given. Neat image, so to speak, and you have a fine handle on the grammer, linguistically speaking (so to speak) etc. etc.
