Painting : Radiant Sea by Karen Winters |
O, the vastness that spreads before me
Of countless waves being born and dismissed,
Makes me feel the ignobility of being me.
The sea is an overpowering poem,
Upon its shores I gaze onto infinity,
The waves crush me and my thoughts,
I shuffle between spells of admiration,
And fear of nature's brute.
A gust of wind uproots me from the Earth,
The boats in the horizon seems closer,
Slowly now, I feel I am merging
With the commanding power of the waves,
I feel one, I feel flight,
O, the vastness of the Seas.!!
A beautiful expression of the allure and power of the sea. One does feel as though we are staring into infinity.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Lisa. :)
DeleteI agree that the sea is an overpowering poem. I could stare at it forever, get lost in it, become one with it. I miss the ocean, as it has been about three years now since I have seen it.......sigh. I enjoyed your poem, which took me to its shore.
ReplyDeleteWell then, I really believe its high time you take a trip. I believe watching the enormity and the power of seas makes you realize how small your life, personal problems and everything else is. In fact it calms your senses. It is a good form of meditation. :)
DeleteLife like sea, sometimes calm, sometimes brute...
ReplyDeleteAgreeing again Vandana. And sometimes we could make our life as powerful as the sea. Only if we tried. :)
