In the deep blue sea
The ocean moves like a majestic queen
As the water stokes the boats and ships get pulled with it
Like a sapphire
the ocean smiles at me
As I hold my breath I see the the fishes flying around
The sharks relaxing
The calm,peaceful sounds that the whales make
The ocean is like liquid syrup
I started to glare and stare at the clown fish which where making love with each other
This is life. This is today

Well done Adam you have used 3 types of poetic devices metaphor, personification and rhyming
July 8, 2013 at 10:23 am
And by doing that this will balance the poem and not turn it in to child’s play

A great peace.I like it because it makes sense
And there are a good amount of words what

I found this good because you are talking about water and the creature in the first two line was really good because you are using personification and metaphor ryming like a children book which will get children happy I’m happy with your work Adam but I’m confused are you a fish or something
Excellent # # # # # # # # # 9\10

I think your poem is good because you have used personification when your describing the ocean to improve it I think you should use commas and full stops

Adam,
This poem is very evocative. It transports me directly to the sea and delivers me to the experience of floating serenely on the surface.
I love the enjambment here:
I wonder if you might want to investigate this line for improvement:
Somehow the image of golden syrup is in conflict with the idea of the water being sapphire blue. Also, the simile seems to be a little clumsy – had you thought of developing it into a metaphor. Maybe the water could BE syrup!
Let me know what you think.
