Wandering by the sea,<\/p>\n
Shore was something to see\u2026<\/p>\n
With the sun too trying to take a dip,<\/p>\n
As if cooling self after the heat\u2019s heap\u2026<\/p>\n
The silent water touching the feet,<\/p>\n
By waves too, descending, as if preparing to sleep\u2026<\/p>\n
Brought something crashing beneath the feet,<\/p>\n
Initially feeling a stone or some junk lying by the watery sheet\u2026<\/p>\n
Lifted it up, to find it absurd,<\/p>\n
An old wine bottle with some paper insert\u2026<\/p>\n
Interesting did it look,<\/p>\n
With some scribbling along attached a hook\u2026<\/p>\n
Sat in peace, resting anxiety and excitement,<\/p>\n
To have a close look, examining the object\u2026<\/p>\n
A year mentioned was way older than the self,<\/p>\n
Of an era that by now had totally exhausted itself\u2026<\/p>\n
By now was so very clear,<\/p>\n
A time capsule was it, the one was holding near\u2026<\/p>\n
Struggled to get the sheet, that looked like a letter,<\/p>\n
Slowly worked it out, wanting to read the matter\u2026<\/p>\n
Strange were the writings in form of some objects,<\/p>\n
Had sea, mountains, ships, pirates, danger as subjects\u2026<\/p>\n
Behind were words to find the place,<\/p>\n
Dare for adventure, to become king of the space\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
