Walk to Remember 2008
October 4, 2008
My second Walk to Remember. This one was special, I had the guts to not only write a poem but to read it MYSELF in front of everyone. I also met up with a very dear friend from myspace for this walk AND took video. The video will be posted at the end after all the photos. Now first up is the poem I wrote and read.

By Melissa Lane
On: June 22, 2008

Written on paper
And written down with love
A letter just for you
Sent to up above

The mail will not deliver it
but that really is just fine
I know of a special way
For letters of this kind

First I'll write my feelings
And tie the paper up with string
Then I'll find a bottle
Made just for this type of thing.

I'll seal the letter in it
And put the cork in really tight
I'll head down to the ocean
And put my message into flight

It will drift along for days
Or maybe even weeks
But don't you worry, God will know
Just who this message seeks

He'll take the message to you
And then it's in your hands
So you see it will reach you
Though departed from this land.

A message in a bottle
Sent out from the shore
A message in a bottle
From my heart to yours

Now for photos. First up is the Balloon Hallway
