No apologies needed. The advanced editor does some funny and frustrating things. Technology drives me nuts sometimes. Anyway, your poem is a good one and clearly portrays the soaring feeling. Please do not get too exhausted as it would be a pity not to have you do some more writing.
Take care and have a wonderful day.
Regards
Barry Penfold.

This is an excellent poem. I enjoyed reading it. Your presentation is very good, too. You also use descriptive words and colorful imagery that draw in a reader.
Best wishes!

Elaine,
I felt myself flying above all my troubles and cares while reading your beautiful poem.
This work is exceptional.
It's nice that you get up and share your poems. I took up public speaking in school and never got over the jitters when giving a speech or reading a poem.
Good luck with this one!
Blessings,
Cindy

Of course the thought of a mermaid soaring above is a trifle anomalous, but we can all soar metaphorically above the earth, well done for cleverly creating this, thoughtful post, this is so beautifully written my friend, well done, I love this,

I have font trouble, too, but yours was okay. It beats me how someone with an important, tiring job as your can still create such magic with your words.

Being retired now, and mobility-impaired, I have lots of time for writing and am thankful for people like you!

The font is fine! This is a sweet and well-structured poem. The rhyme is unforced and the imagery successful. Well done.

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, A Mermaid Who Soars, takes this opportunity to bring the mermaid up from waters of safety and into the skies to observe what life is like from another perspective. Cool.

Comment from w.j.debi
I love the idea of a soaring mermaid. Why not? The Sirens originally had wings and then had mermaid tails so what is to keep the mermaid from adopting wings and flying? Maybe they've had that ability all along and you were the first to discover it. Shush. It may still be a secret.
Well written flight of fancy. Love it.

Go to the front page of the computer: settings = fonts and size. Hello, little hugger with a tail to tell. Now this is a beautiful photo to compliment your story/poem. maybe she was sawing instead of flying? Hee, Hee. Anyway, you had the inspiration to write this and it is warm and wonderful - I love it.
