I went and took my sorrows,
My sorrows,
small and bleeding,
hard and lonesome,
dark and weeping.
I went and took my sorrows
and sealed them in a jar.
I threw them to the ocean
The ocean,
Wild and angry,
Deep and longing,
Old and joyful
I tossed them to the ocean
Which tossed them back to me.
My sorrows,
small and bleeding,
hard and lonesome,
dark and weeping.
I went and took my sorrows
and sealed them in a jar.
I threw them to the ocean
The ocean,
Wild and angry,
Deep and longing,
Old and joyful
I tossed them to the ocean
Which tossed them back to me.

Very nice Delaney! Even the
Very nice Delaney! Even the title is catchy and romantic. Oddly enough, I think the last line was what caught me and made me read it again. Very good.
I was having fun thinking of the deeper meaning of the poem. Did you intend the ocean to be symbolic of the world in general, or did you intend the poem to be read more literally?
