Message In a Bottle-Death-Tahera

I have at last reached this divine shore
Where no man has ever set foot
No dirty trash can be found
In this peaceful retreat
Nature's soft silence
As peace returns
On tip toes
To meet
Death

Hi Tahera -- I really like how your nonet here exudes that feeling of acceptance-- I came back from a wake today and this seems very fitting to read for me... liked how you say "divine shore" as well--- nikko :)

The "divine shore" sounds like a place I'd like to be. We may have to tip toe and meet Death before we reach such a panacea. Litter is everywhere, dear, and a problem in the states as well as other countries. Enjoyed the soothing quality of your poem and wish you success in the contest! Love, Carolyn
