How poetic can you be? Write a short poem about what you see!

Within the bottle a life will change,

Words on paper will cause it to rearrange.

Once read it could mean a new love found,

Or a horrible ending to a life turned around.

Oh, faith, faith should it ever land on shore,

Would it be more than bargained for?

Floating among the fsh and the gulls prying eyes,

A message in the bottle under the bluest sky.

Romance, romance, a story often told,

A sailor from a ship throwing the bottle hands so cold,

Or perhaps a man suffering for his lady true,

Mayhaps it only has a simple I love you.

What message in the bottle is floating in the sea?

I only know it is not a message for me.

Message in a bottle

Floating out at sea

Waiting to be discovered

Where lies your destiny?

Who will find your note washed up on a shore?

Do you need to be rescued from an island far?

Oh message in a bottle what secrets lie within your jar.

Riding The Wave...
