Marcus Crane Poet Tanka

Message In a Bottle

a long way to go 

like a raft in the ocean .. 

destination known 

yet ... unknown ..wherever it 

leads / message in a bottle 



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

this one actually has 2different meanings 

1 - some people have difficulies with expressing their feelings 
keepingtheirselfs closed .. and they follow a long road before they open . 

2 - "destination known ... yet ... unkown " no matter where the wind takes you , better 
places will be found .. its not good to plan your life .. just let it go 
wherever it is taking you to

Caroline Cécile Delacroix September 30, 2009 at 9:03 PM I guess you could say desination known, I mean it is going to beach somewhere on land, but yeah, no one knows where. It is prone to the elements and the currents. But you can be sure someone eventually is going to get that message. :) Nice write, thought provoking for me. Thanks for sharing. Caroline.
