Tide of the mind

a poem by Devi Nangrani

Have you ever seen an ocean?
It’s deep blue flowing water?

The thrashing roaring waves
Arising from within the waters.
The waves arising from the waves
Coming towards the shore
And receding back in dismay.
To give the message
“Come I may, but go I must”
To fulfill nature’s perfect plan.

Have you ever heard the whispering cry
The resounding agony of the waves?
