A jar full of secret hopes and dreams,
dances upon the bubbling froth,
right on the edge of a timelessness.
Buffered by the ebb and flow,
it now resides with broken sea shells,
lost among a million grains of sand,
patiently waiting to be found.

This is really beautiful. We can all go inward to connect to the sands of sorrow that were once a hopeful jar dancing in the bubbling froth but is now lost on that beach of pain.
