Tidal

This poem reaches to the very insides of every woman in love who has waited patiently for this moment to arrive, but was disappointed. The expectation of some day to be proposed to by her lover, for the ultimate in fulfillment. The images painted here ...waiting in frigid weather, by the banks of a dark river with flowers on our icy breath, feeling the chills of "love", and yet that expectation unfulfilled that day....as the approaching wave (of expectation), raises immense expectations
There, for the first time,
you see the water rising
like fate in my eyes.
but the wave (the moment) simply passes by and breaks on the rocks with a great roar. Riveting, from the insides of a master poetess!

The writer here chooses to approach her situation with "story-telling" tone and she starts by explaining the scenario beautifully and while this poem, is not so long at all you could say so much about it,her words were chosen carefully and what I loved the most about the poem was the attention to detail for sure. you could picture everything so perfectly in mind,

I love how the title relates directly to the feeling this piece creates..whilst reading my emotions rose and fell too..and its the way the emotion in the beginning of this piece seem so distant from the emotion she ends with make this piece special not too mention that her vocabulary was exquisite,and was set to rest perfectly between the complex and the simple.

Amazing Job

Fab ! I could feel the cold hand grip the ice of a heart ashore as the dice rolled twice.

Anguished and lovely. I'm drawn into the feeling even without knowing the origin. A truly beautiful poem in my opinion!
