To live

To speak is to be.

But what of the sea?

Will its winds carry my words away?


To be is to make.

With a craftsmens fine skills.

Life or tool? It matters not.


To make is too live.

Life poor or live not?

Suprised by old horrors, by battles long fought.

Okay, I can't stand it another second! Why did you use this too?

I was totally content with this poem till you threw that extra 'o' in that line. Now all I can think about is ... how come?

Hmmm...I think you could have gone a lot deeper with this farror. The rhymes seemed a bit weak as well, although I really like the last two lines. I'd like to see where this poem would go if you dug a bit deeper into the subject you're discussing, but an overall good start.
