Analysis of Message in a bottle
He said he loves her like a raindrop, and
that her body ages with the wine of billions of years of ancestry, like a message found in a bottle and that bottle being the earth.
He said such a wine as hers is never lost at sea and its destiny is always to be found safe and sound, and ripened with the sweetest tones of sun, never kept in the darkest of basements.
