Your message, you sent out into the sea,
Clearly statements, that we were not meant to be.

Out in the open, words penned you place,
The thoughts and feelings I refused to face.

Listening to shells picked up on the beach,
Stop, hear the echoes, you only need reach.

Words sent to sea all bottled up tight,
One day to be opened, to let in some light.

Messages searching for someone out there,

Found,

Hearing and listening....see,

Someone really does care.

Bernie

Such a nice message. Thanks, wonderfully done!

A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes.

"out in the open, words penned you place
the thoughts and feelings I refuse to face"

I love these lines. They say so much. So often.......so very often........

I applaud, bslicker!

After years of searching, I have found I am nothing more, nothing less...I am in truth Just A Woman after all.

Walker: thank you glad you liked it.

Poet deVine: That can happen to, 0======0 so here is a q-tip, but never put anything in your ear unless it is bigger than you elbow.

Paula: thank you, could send alot of bottles lately.

Just A Women: Very glad you liked it, and yes very often probably to often.
