Message in a bottle
Swept away by the sea
Secrets held within
Dreams of you and me
Message in a bottle
Tossed to and fro
Emotions hidden inside
Ensnared, nowhere to go
Message in a bottle
Washed up on the shore
Waiting to be found
Love lost no more
Message in a bottle
Read and set free
Never to be trapped again
Our dreams of you and me
Shared with Poetry Pantry and Tuesday Platform
Very romantic.
ReplyDeleteI always seem to enjoy storys that include the message in a bottle idea and I like the way you rhyme it into your poem.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to One Shot Wednesday! Great poem, I really liked your use of imagery. I also liked your romantic spin to a simple message in a bottle. Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteI got a big message in a bottle once, in fact, too many bottles. Red wine bottles, white wine bottles, scotch bottles. I discovered that I was hooked on bottles. I never wrote about them though - just drank everything they had in them. One day I finally got the message - stay away from the bottles. Now I write.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you and keep up the writing - it's great stuff!
glad your bottle was dreams and not the agony and pain of the other commenter
ReplyDeletelovely and sweet my friend

Love from the Moon

I'm glad your bottle was uncorked. Tender poem with a happy ending. Doesn't get much better.
ReplyDeleteNow all you need is a Genie in a bottle to go along with that.
yes, Sting's song played background while I read it. Nice wordplay and lovely love poem. So good to see so many men writing love poems this week. Thank you.

ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog...please don't be a stranger.
I'd been off-line for the past couple of days...lots of activity going on outside my cabin...tree-loppers doing what their name suggests! So I had know phone and no internet connection...the latter was driving me more insane than I usually am! :)
Lovely concepts and words ~

Beautiful words.
ReplyDeleteAlways drawn to the idea of a message in a bottle.. perhaps the digital trail we leave now is like that.. to be read years later by a stranger.
ReplyDeleteSweet. It flows really well.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous write!❤️
ReplyDeleteSuch a romantic concept, the message in a bottle!
ReplyDeleteI would love to find a bottle with a message in it! I love what you 'found' in your bottle and how you expressed this.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! Always something so intriguing about a message in a bottle.
ReplyDeleteAs i live by the sea, i am always on the lookout for a message in a bottle. Smiles.
ReplyDeleteWhat a delicious ending. Love the thought of love set free... to become what it needs to be.
ReplyDeleteAnd here I started to sing the song by Police...
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the whole poem, but was struck by the idea of the emotions stuck in the bottle. Glad they found a way free. :)
ReplyDeleteI too thought of the song "Message in the Bottle" now I have that looping in my head.
ReplyDeleteThe last line brings release and stands out. It would be fun to find a message in a bottle.
Ok you had me with that title and now the song keeps looping in my head....and I loved this wonderfully romantic poem. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteAh--this is really lovely!!! And I notice from another post that may be a Stephen King fan--so am I--and my piece this week is a bit of an homage to him--
ReplyDeleteso touching...both the image and the poem!!
ReplyDeleteIt is always sad to think of messages in bottles never reaching any destination so it is good that this one has been found especially as love is involved. What a delightful read this is.
ReplyDeletea message in a bottle is always intriguing. and romantic!
ReplyDeleteNice, romantic and I suspect you're found your message of love and brought it life. Good write!
ReplyDeleteTo touching and so romantic!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful poem!
Dimi...
I want to know what the message said! But I also get the metaphor of the bottle coming to share and finding its home.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful poem.

ReplyDeleteA lyrical delight!
ReplyDeletealways intriguing - messages from the past.
