I get it perfectly. Something for me to remember. I am a poet so the metaphor is as clear as an ocean with waves that like life ebb and flow.

@aissa2 I’ve always loved the metaphor of the waves that ebb and flow on the ocean. Emotionally it’s a better metaphor for me than the rollercoaster ride - I don’t like rollercoasters. I grew up on the West Coast and always found the ocean to be calming.

In addition to the talent you have in writing poetry, do you find that writing has an emotional effect on you also? I’m asking this as someone who doesn’t compose poetry.
