The picture is inspiring. You lady must be young, us older types have too much baggage to behave in this manner.
Nothing these days is easy. And we quit eating really strange food to get out picky tummies a break. We find joy in easier things. Our mindsets are different, there is still plenty of joy to be had, just slower:-) Good writing.

Comment from Harambe iz ur Daddy
Your poem intrigues from the beginning with the highly unusual image of a diver exploring upon the apparent ashes of a subterranean civilization, and serves as a sort of subtext without ever intruding, perhaps a reminder that your protagonist is rising above this acceptance of fate with a light heart, or that whenever we explore a new place, we're just visitors in a place others spent entire lives. It seems this image is bookended in a way with your final line, which was clever.
Whimsical and delightfully written throughout.
He winks and maps out all her needs. <= clever because you left it open to innuendo of a dalliance, without ever going there literally
My only suggestion is to consider a larger font, for older readers. I can read it fine, but some readers here really struggle.
I've been to Romania a couple of times and noticed it was mentioned in your profile. It's very pretty there about this time of year.

This is one of the best poems on this subject I've read Iza, you're displaying your abilities with poetry, this is smooth, language rich and I think is partially about you. This is beautifully written, I wish I could give you a six, but alas, none left, well done, blessings Roy

I like the character in this poem. I love how she dances in France. It is fun that she went traveling without any plans. The end was great. We have all been there carrying a lot of souvenirs that the bag is ready to burst. I would only recommend that you have the text a bit larger.

Hi Friend!
This rhyming poem is full of emotion and delightful imagery! I enjoyed reading this and viewing your supportive photo mage. I suggest you change the font style to 2 or even 1. It seems a bit faded. Just an idea
Peace & blessings,
Alex :)

A young woman adventurer here and travelling alone can be dangerous, but this woman has the confidence to make the most of life. A fun post for the contest Iza, love Dolly x

Such a light, refreshing touch to this poem. It speaks of a freedom many people never know. You write it in a way that brings this woman to life in one's mind. Very well done. Good luck in the contest.
