Bottles of Poem


These beautiful sandblasted glass bottles are created by Jeff Crandall, a poet as well as a glass artist. Each bottle has a theme indicating its content, followed by a short witty poem. My favorite ones are -

DREAMS (Cobalt blue bottle) -
DRINK DEEPLY AND BELIEVE

PASSION (Clear-aquamarine bottle) -
CONTAINS DARING TOUCHES, ACHING DESIRES, RISING HEAT, SOFT SIGHS AND LOW GROWLS

TIME (Clear-aquamarine bottle) -
CONTAINS EXTRA SECONDS, MINUTES, AND HOURS. CAUTION: USE WISELY, EVAPORATES QUICKLY

TRUST (Clear-aquamarine bottle) -
FRAGILE: DO NOT BREAK

TRUTH (Clear-aquamarine bottle) -
CAUTION: DO NOT DILUTE

YOUTH (Clear-aquamarine bottle) -
CONTAINS BOUNDLESS ENERGY, WILD IDEAS, BEAUTY, INNOCENCE & JUST A HINT OF IMMORTALITY

Bottles to me are magic containers. They offers an imaginary space to collect laughters and tears, to store a certain smell that belongs to a certain time, to hold a unique taste driven by desire.
