The Beach
by Jonni F!.
Laying at the edge of the ocean,
feeling Atlantic's caress,
sand like powdered diamonds
covers me like a dress!.
The strength of the waves
restores my faith,
the breezes ease my soul,
the sun embraces my body,
and once again, I'm whole!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Beach Poem: My version
So much to see
So much to do
At the beach,
as I walk along the shore
taking in the fresh air,
along with the nature
One should make sure
they have the sunscreen
or they can get sun burned!.
A person can go swimming in the lake
Other activities would be to go sailing
One person can go surfing, water-skiing
After these activities hunger will set in
So a person can have a picnic
watermelon, or lemonade!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
Your "sand like powdered diamonds" line rings true and beautiful!. Great metaphor!.!.!.I think that's the device!. (I'm terrible at the names and definitions of poetic devices, sorry)!. But it was beautiful and brought back good memories of the oceans I've visited!. Thanks, jonniWww@QuestionHome@Com
I like the image of the ocean vesting you as well as caressing you while you are lying there!. Strength of waves restores faith, Breezes ease the soul, Sun embraces body, And again you're whole!. A healing poem!. Thank you!. I feel the waves, the sun, the breeze, and I lie there too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The flow of the last few lines, I feel needs to be worked on, and seems to end abruptly!. I like L3 and L4, they are very pretty lines and paint a nice visualWww@QuestionHome@Com
very nice imagery and a lot less wordy than some earlier works,
I get "lay" and "lie" confused as well!.!.!.
