Cottage

There once was a little cottage by the sea,

A sea of green,

Boarded up, closed tight, nothing to be seen.

Author's Note

The meaning is entirely up to you and I'd love to hear what your translation is, why it means something to you or why it doesn't. The more in-depth the better, but that doesn't mean you have to write something really long and depthy if you don't want to. I appreciate any and all reviews. <3 I plan to some day make a career out of my writing, so I want my writing to be the best it can be and every comment or review will help me reach that goal.

This poem is wonderfully sculpted and strong. There are only a few words but it really reflects your great talent as a poet. What I see of, 'Cottage,' is the cottage being a representation of isolation. The cottage, being normally associated with warmth and cosiness has been boarded up, showing how it's original purpose has been lost. However the words you used, ''a little cottage by the sea,'' makes me feel good. So maybe there is hope for this cottage, and anyone who is feeling alone. Because everyone has a purpose (even if they cannot see it themselves. And they put up a wall and close themselves off.) The use of the word, ''green'' to me also suggests hope and life and renewal. Thank you for this poem! Sorry if I have rambled on!

Thank you so much for the beautiful review! Don't worry about rambling (especially with me, I'm pretty rambly myself, hahaha), although I definitely think you were very composed with your thoughts and I deeply appreciate the meaning you've found behind what I've written. This little piece sort of woke me up all the way this morning to make sure I jotted it down and I feel like it could be interpreted so many ways. Your's is extremely optimistic and beautiful. Thank you so much for the review. It really means the world to me.

That's some beautiful imagery you laid out. It also scares me a little bit to know that so much can be said with so few words. It's a really nice poem.
