LIFE AT SEA

[A REPOST FOR MY NEW FRIENDS]

I WAS LOOKING AT THE SEA,

BLUE,VAST,CALM AND DEEP.

I WONDER-WHAT IT SAYS?

DOES IT INDICATE LIFE,

WHICH IS AS UNFATHOMABLE?

 

 

AS IF IT HAS STOLEN THE

COLOUR OF THE SKY,

A FEW SEA GULLS

OR MAY BE ALABATROSS,

HOVERING OVER  AND

GIVING ME COMPANY.

 

 

THE WIND BRINGS IN SALTY SMELL,

A BOARD SAYS–

‘SOUTHERN MOST POINT

OF ASIA CONTINENT’.

THE PALM TREES SWINGS SLOWLY

 BUT SILENCE REMAINS.

 

 

I THINK AND THINK,

HOW TO FATHOM MY LIFE.

HOW TO SEE THAT IS UNSEEN?

GOLDEN RETREATING SUN LIGHT

SIGNALS END OF ANOTHER DAY.

 

 

CHINESE FISHING BOATS AT FAR

ALMOST NEAR THE HORIZON.

A SADNESS DESCENDS

AND I LOOK AT MY WATCH…..

‘SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE….!!

BY NOW……’

  2. Animesh Raj says

    the sea is infinite; life is not. sea might have stolen the colour of sky; let not ”her” steal happiness from you. very nicely written :)

    Did we not read before, people do come in our lives for a reason,and now instead of waiting, cfreate the reason for “she” to come instead of lookinginto the depth of the sea. And you seem to have imbibed that blue shade of the sea and sky to reflect ur moods.

    no difference between she and he,,,,,,,,same…You can never see Him if you don”t see you are Him,Could the waterdrop ever reach the sea
    If it didn”t know the Sea is boiling inside it?
    perhaps she was lready there by then,,,may be you didnt noticed it that way
