Poet Beth "Batyah" Elishevah Ginzberg expresses her creative poetic meditations about water as a very powerful atmospheric element of the environment. Ginzberg wrote these poems at the East Rogers Park Lake Michigan Beaches, on-the-spot, to experientially convey the full effect of the Great Lakes of Chicago, IL USA for your reading pleasure.

A SECRET MESSAGE FOUND IN A BOTTLE WASHED ASHORE


Related image

The mad rushing of over-sized water waves six to eight feet high of a huge great lake, the Great Lake of Michigan,  splashing dangerous undercurrents, whipping wildly waters to take you under, complete immersion, covered as a fish underneath water, swimming with sharks, dolphins, avoiding the blades of the sharp rotor motor slicing skimming water, nowhere near, legs not to be cut off, scuba diving, oxygen tank on one's back, feeling the sea waters with six senses, not to drown, to float paddle, to be above water, and above ground.

Washed ashore, to grope up a sand bank, find a bottle washed with a message on paper inside, crack the bottle in half, sharp stabbing glass pieces! A message, yes!
 
Unraveling the paper to find one's fortune. Is this the answer to your wishes? The answer to your desires and plans! What does the secret message in a bottle say?
 
Simply King David's Psalms: "God will fulfill all your desires...God visits His beloved in their sleep...The Lord is our Shepherd, we shall lack nothing."
