Congratulations on your win with this lovely poem. I like the thought of the sun kissing the earth each morning--like a goodnight kiss to a child as you wish them sweet dreams. The sun wishes us have a good day.
Outstanding.

Congratulations June! Such a beautiful little poem and I'm so glad it received the recognition it deserved. I like the idea of the waves being soothed by a kiss of morning sun. Such a sweet thought that we can also apply to our own tumultuous hearts, gently soothed by a morning kiss. I loved this poem very much.

June,
This is a great mix of words and artwork. It also has good use of metaphor and personification. The last line gives hope of a new and better life.
Congratulations on winning the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy

Ah, you have a similar theme as my 5-7-5 with a "kiss at sunrise." The poem is soothing and helps to start the new day right changing the "tumultuous waves" to a happy new path. Congratulations on the win!

Splendid word choice and imagery in this uplifting write. Ess consonance in the first two lines is like the hypnotic susurrus of the sea.

After the storm comes calm and renewal. Your final line reads as a symbol of hope.

A fitting poem for these times.

Thanks for sharing and warm congratulations on your well deserved win.

Stay safe and blessed

Julia

This 5-7-5, Morning Kiss, has the right set up and brings a sense of hope as the darkness and cold give way to a glimpse of salvation.

June,

Both your selected artwork and verse present a nice (philosophical) story for FS reviewers' reading pleasure.

Behind each dark cloud, there is often a rainbow of possibilities. Good luck in the voting.
