Notes About The Poem

TIME IN A BOTTLE

TIME IN A BOTTLE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
T - Tears of memories, forever sealed as planned I - Inscrutable hours, slipping away like grains of sand M - Moments frozen in time, like a photograph's gaze E - Echoes of laughter, whispers of love's sweet praise I - In the depths of my soul, a story unfurls N - Notes of nostalgia, murmurs from the past start to swirl A - Amidst the silence, memories begin to unfold B - Bottled up emotions, aching to make some noise O - Oceans of tears, skies of blue, and rivers of joy T - Tides of time washing over me all day long T - Timeless moments, like a treasured song L - Lost and found in the depths of this bottle so fair E – Ephemeral dreams suspended in this glass sphere

Dear Sara,absolutely beautiful… the way each letter builds into a tender mosaic of memory and emotion is just exquisite. It reads like a slow exhale of feeling—grief, joy, nostalgia—all bottled up in a poetic time capsule...Hugs
