The sea, in all its vastness just lay, swathed in glistening blue and grey
Stretching across is its never-ending splendour, all through the night and day
The incoherent speechless song the sea sings
With changing trebles and intensity the waves go lashing
Not revealing what’s in its heart and mind
Just keeping it all within and undefined
But whenever you walk to it, stroll by along its side or just sit
It eases you down and offers its selfless companionship
Mirroring your mood, your mind it reads
Consoling you when hurt, embalming with its soothing breeze
Often I walk to it, to offer comfort and seek back some
The sea, in its mystical ways, lends itself like any living one
Only when you reach out to it, you realise it has a soul
A way, a life, (perhaps a heart), a language of its own
Its salty stench
For the days you feel your heart wrench
Its laughing waves
For the times when you have happy days
Sometimes (and more often) it just keeps quiet
To ensure you unload the words the world denied
Tenders umpteen renditions amidst my forlorn
And makes me believe am not alone
Shares my happiness and all my joys
Sprinkling its affection through hurling waves it deploys
The sea is my favourite companion, sharing a special camaraderie
The one where I shamelessly lose myself in reverie
What is it that draws me to it, why is it here that I find my missing link
Is it the potent powers it possesses which lets me think things I like to think?
I do not know the reason….but whenever I am by the sea
Through its calm and tranquil, I always tend to know a little more of me!!!
Beautiful poem 🙂 Makes me really yearn to be by the sea again!

Lovely, perceptive, introspective. It is so soothing to establish and grow a relationship with nature, with the enormous sea that is humble enough to touch your feet and lie there.
@shubha: lying there and yet have the power to change the being in you…
