Within this bottle I shall leave something behindA message in a bottle for someone to find
I will cast this bottle into the blackness unknown
Knowing not where it will roam
Knowing not where it might find a home
Into the vast expanse of the blog-o-sphere
It shall be cast,, for all eternity it will last
With thoughts of the future and remembrances of days past
I cast it forth with but one word inside
One word is enough I think,, for this word is without equal
I fill this bottle with the word “HOPE”
“HOPE” that tomorrow brings sunshine and happiness
“HOPE” that children everywhere laugh and sing
“HOPE” that wise men among us lead us to peace
“HOPE” that we can stand together as one people apon this Earth
“HOPE” that the teachings of all Good Books can be followed
“HOPE” for the poor that they may find richness in their days
“HOPE” that evil is forever vanquished from our lives
“HOPE” that our everyday burdens will not be too much
“HOPE” for all humanity
For you see,, HOPE is eternal within the human breast….

To Drowsey:
Sometimes in the dark of night,,
when the moon shines bright,,
I take my meds...I like the blue
ones the best.......
To Mimi:
Your welcome,, thanks for the visit...
I just hope my bottle is not swallowed by a sea serpent,,
I hate to see a sea serpent get sea sick in the sea…
Can I come by and annoy you sometime?...
I’m very good at being annoying,, just ask Drowsey….

To Catz:

But I was wise enough to get a case
of Wild Turkey...I just HOPE I don't grow any more feathers.....
And the Wizard gave the Tin Man a heart, saying "As for you, my galvanized friend, you want a heart! You don't know how lucky you are not to have one. Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable. I could have been a world figure, a power among men, a - a successful wizard, had I not been obstructed by a heart. Yes -- back where I come from there are men who do nothing all day but good deeds. They are called phil...er -- er -- phil -- er, yes...good-deed-doers. And their hearts are no bigger than yours. But! They have one thing you haven't got! A testimonial!" The Wizard bent down and retrieved a heart-shaped watch from his black bag and presented it to the Tin Man. "Therefore, in consideration of your kindness, I take pleasure at this time in presenting you with a small token of our esteem and affection. And remember, my sentimental friend...that a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others."
I believe I hear your heart ticking, GT281!

I hit my head on the door while I was descending into my blogatrium,,thus I can not be held
responsable for what is written apon this page......
You should grab a bottle and toss
it into the darkness too,, perhaps filled with faerie delights....
Love your message, love your poem, love your blog!

To Akelamalu: (your lucky I spelled you name right,, please change it to Smith or Jones to make it easier on me)...
