I adore poems like this where life is given to an inadamate (sp?) object. It always makes for an awesome read.
You convey this perfectly, each emotion and thought...well done!

Wow, Jeannie! the wonders you do with words! The way you've described life akin to driftwood is subtle, yet so overpowering that it hits you hard and real!

great job!

good luck and peace

You know as I read this poem I couldn't help but to think of how this relates to humans as well. It was very well penned. Keep it up! :)
