Bottle Post

Splashing, sparkling water pure,
Gaining strength as you rush to the sea.
Carrying a bottle with a message sure,
That I wrote to my love after tea.
Float my bottle on the water's wave,
Carry my message to my love,
This note my happiness will save.
And I thank sweet Heaven above.
Surely a guiding hand will bring my writings ashore,
Straight to my waiting heart,
To lift her spirits empore.
My Bottle Post is just the start.
