This makes me wonder what you were thinking to write of the floodgates! A nice poem, Debbie. I would call it a small free verse poem!

Debbie, I think we haven't seen anything yet. Since oceans will rise and the planet will get warmer. This could also be a comment on crying. You are very observant and plugged into what's going on!

† Always Seems To Be Something 'Bitter' Going On In This World ?
