HARSHA SAI by Harsha Madhu
Silence amongst the gushing waves
Deep inside, another world moves
While the time stands still. Stakes
Forgotten and bubbles rise. Caves
Of shipwreck and invisible sun rays
Guiding into a blue green abyss.
Away from the tins, the fins arise
Fighting the current. We be wise
To look further, never close eyes
Cause life dances without disguise.
Hear every breath as you realize
You are alive, away from wild goose chase
Towards the land below ground. Ways
Converge as grief vanishes with days.
Time rests while sea hugs the rocks
Like inseparable lovers, together always.
Tall and clinging are the coconut trees
From the hillock and his wives.
Small are the words to describe this.
Infinite are my thoughts to channelize
Wind tells me to open my ears
While She sings to celebrate the ease
Of loving and living. A rhyme so nice
As schools of fish listen and rejoice.
Slowly I come up to the blue skies
And I realize my heart’s turmoil erase.
Alone with myself I unite. Despise
Nothing, the sea told me. Embrace
Everything her arms said. Cherish
Every moment like the Dolphin’s buzz.
Silence amongst the gushing waves
My very first scuba dive it was.
