RE: And Not a Drop to Drink...#letsmakeacollage and #tellastorytome Contests
A rather gloomy mood gripped me while reading the poem. Did you write it? Kudos!
I felt the thirst of life and was afraid to hand my fate over to the sea. It can wait a while longer. I want to taste so much, a life is too short.
Hi Erika, Thanks for stopping by!
Yes, I wrote it :)) Ordinarily, I would not publish verse, because I'm not a poet, but I couldn't come up with an appropriate story and wanted to support @calluna in her #letsmakeastory contest.
Gloomy, yes. If you read The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, from which I took my cue, Coleridge is quite gloomy. I'm just a poor imitator--with an an environmental message. Great fun engaging in this exercise. That's the point, isn't it?
Hope your summer is going well.
Warm regards, AG
