Thoughts in Water, Feelings on Sand by Madelyn Fischer

emotional hopeful reflective fast-paced

5.0

"I floated from 'hi' and drowned from 'bye'."

Poetry is so beautiful and widely unique because it feels like tiny clippings of the poet's soul. Thoughts in Water, Feelings on Sand is a collection of short and direct poems with piercing undertones. The poems are lyrical and often inspired by nature and imagery of the ocean; exactly what one would expect from the title.

You won't encounter any vulgarity in this collection. There are no curse words or explicitly romantic poems, though that certainly doesn't mean the poems lack emotion or affect the reader. I highlighted many poems that I found so beautiful.

Thoughts in Water, Feelings on Sand is a collection for you if you enjoy modern poems of a few lines or less and occasional storytelling poems. I look forward to future poetry releases from the author!
