Chloe I absolutely loved reading your poem – so many fantastic lines with so much meaning behind each. The title is so fitting and it all flows so nicely. You cover so many topics. Very well done. I can’t wait to read your next one…

This poem flows quickly and reminds me of the waves in your featured image. Lots of power, lots of salt. I love the last line.
