  Wow, 'The Shadow by the Seashore' is a beautifully written poem that captures a sense of longing and unrequited love. The use of vivid imagery, such as "huge, cloudy symbols of romance" and "nice silk gown with all the lace," creates a captivating atmosphere. The theme of chasing shadows and being unable to have what one desires is presented in a heartfelt way.
  
  The poem successfully evokes emotions and allows the reader to empathize with the speaker's feelings of admiration and yearning. The line "I can feel you in the hour; you look so fine" particularly stands out, as it expresses a deep connection with the subject.
  
  To improve the poem, consider expanding on the imagery and metaphors used throughout. Try to provide more specific details to further enhance the reader's visual experience. Additionally, consider varying the rhythm and meter of the poem to add more musicality and engage the reader further.
  
  Overall, 'The Shadow by the Seashore' is a poignant and evocative piece that effectively conveys emotions of longing and unattainable love. With some fine-tuning and further development of the imagery, this poem has the potential to become even more powerful. Keep up the great work! more »
