Message In a Bottle-Rite-Cecil

Since you found my words, my seal was tight.
Please read, do not have any fright.
These words, be my last, tonight.
To my wife, heavens lights,
I have taken flight.
No longer fight,
Our twelfth night,
Ignites
Rite

Very nice, Cecil. I was really intrigued by the igniting of the rite on the "Twelfth Night." Is this a tradition for you? A ritual of some kind, or a reference to Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night"? Best wishes in the contest, my friend. Love, Carolyn
