Hey now!

Starbuck · 10-05-2011, 09:12 PM

Finding a bottle, I'm curious about what I should do with it...

So with a pen and a page I started writing just what I'd say if we were face to face, just what you mean to me, tell you, these simple truths: be strong in the Lord, and never give up hope, you're gonna do great things, I already know, Gods got His hand on you, so don't live life in fear, forgive and forget, but don't forget why you're here. Take your time and pray, these are the words I would say.

Rolls up the paper, puts it in the bottle, corks it, and throws it as far into the ocean as far as I can. I hope it finds you well.

Nothing is ever as bad as it seems at first....
& everything happens for a reason.

For Johnny Pole on the Forgotten Beach

by, Anne Sexton

In his tenth July some instinct
taught him to arm the waiting wave,
a giant where its mouth hung open.
He rode on the lip that buoyed him there
and buckled him under. The beach was strung
with children paddling their ages in,
under the glare od noon chipping
its light out. He stood up, anonymous
and straight among them, between
their sand pails and nursery crafts.
The breakers cartwheeled in and over
to puddle their toes and test their perfect
skin. He was my brother, my small
Johnny brother, almost ten. We flopped
down upon a towel to grind the sand
under us and watched the Atlantic sea
move fire, like night sparklers;
and lost our weight in the festival
season. He dreamed, he said, to be
a man designed like a balanced wave...
how someday he would wait, giant and straight.
Johnny, your dream moves summers inside my mind.
He was tall and twenty that July,
but there was no balance to help;
only the shells came straight and even.
This was the first beach of assault;
the odor of death hung in the air
like rotting potatoes, the junkyard
of landing craft waited open and rusting.
The bodies were strung out as if they were
still reaching for each other, where they lay
to blacken, to burst through their perfect
skin. And Johnny Pole was one of them.
He gave in like a small wave, a sudden
hole in his belly and the years all gone
where the Pacific noon chipped its light out.
Like a bean bag, outflung, head loose
and anonymous, he lay. Did the sea move fire
for its battle season? Does he lie there
forever, where his rifle waits, giant
and straight?...I think you die again and live again,
Johnny, each summer that moves inside my mind.

the wind promises it.....the heart will tender it....and it is written across the sky....and through love, all things are made possible...
Just look up into the night sky...and wish upon night's first star...for you will see me...there....and our dreams will reach past the stars...through space and time...your heart & mine..will find each other...BELIEVE...and make that wish tonight...for I am here....I am there...I am omnipresent...in the sun..in the rain..in the stars...in the clouds..in your soul...we are one...
Placing my message in the bottle..to throw out to sea..hoping that bottle will find thee..across miles..across borders..and as it brings this message to you...from me...know I am always with you..feel me in your heartbeats...

Sassy · 01-21-2012, 09:08 PM

My message in a bottle:

Never underestimate the power of softness. A soft voice demands quiet to be heard and offers respect for the sensitivity of the listener. Soft hands treat life gently and show concern for others' feelings and desires. A soft heart is open to new experiences and gives receives love freely. Soft feet tread lightly on our mother earth, showing care for her creatures large and small. Walk softly through life, proud to do no harm and leave no trace except the remnants of love.

Lady Pamela · 01-21-2012, 10:42 PM

Adding a card in this bottle that simply says:
Set Me Free!

Meaning :
From this addiction to smoking , unwanted actions actions on my part and neagtive emotions holding me down!

Kätzchen · 10-10-2012, 12:41 AM

For every time you think of me,
Dust me upon your body:
inhale the fragrance of my being
and may I always be on your mind
and in your heart;
each time you think of me
and dust me upon your body.

kittygrrl · 10-29-2012, 05:25 PM

*bump*

"Happy Samhain" you may have one wish

WolfyOne · 10-29-2012, 05:48 PM

I completely forgot about this thread and I started it, lol

Always nice to see someone bumping it

So, as long as I'm here, I'll leave a note

I'm still writing on tree bark and I ran out of bottles...thinking no one got my last message

My message, be honest and open, gentle and true

*heaves the tree bark out to sea like a frisbee*

Bit · 10-29-2012, 06:59 PM

*gathers supplies, sits down and gets comfy*

You mean all the world to me
You always will
I love you with all my heart:

the sad places
broken places
joyful happy places
the places which still love others
the places which no one else has touched

all of it together,
my whole heart,
forever

*rolls up the parchment, tucks into bottle; seals bottle with cork and wax*

*sets bottle free on the waves*

*puts supplies away for later*

WolfyOne · 10-30-2012, 01:48 PM

How come Bit has all the supplies she needs where she is and I am still writing on tree bark

Blade · 10-30-2012, 01:59 PM

If you never have expectations of others they will never let you down. Only make expectations for yourself and hold your integrity and don't let yourself down.

I am lost, in the deep blue wetness of the sea. My coordinates are unclear. But, if you locate the mermaids and singing sirens, you'll be ever so near.

Come, find me.

DamonK · 03-26-2013, 12:35 AM

They say you are looking for your soulmate and you just might be lucky enough to find that person. What they don't tell you is that your soulmate might be someone you already know. That person might be the one that has seen you through more hard times than anyone ever has and cared enough to love you through it all, no matter what you did, or what you said. That person might be the one having a yelling match with you on the phone, when one minute you're both crying, and the end, you're both laughing. That person might be the one that you can feel through the distance when something is wrong. And that first time you look in that person's eyes... You'll know. And you'll see the world much more clearly.
