_Empty:_ as the word meaning a glass bottle in Africa. I'd have my fill; to the brim of life's expectations. Expected of the plenty from the very little I have given. Life is that empty, as many are trying at their fill. On the straight and narrow, of where it sits. _Hoping it won't spill._ How tall do you measure your glass view of life? Fragile are the moments; tapping on the taps of glass. _Hoping it won't crack._ This bottle is what I make of it's fill; Am I overburdened, or overflowing, with the cares of the world, or whether the Holy Spirit? A question, only with the answer from within; and as I ask from Him.

Bottle Poem
