‘Oh, Majestic Ocean’...! ! !

‘Oh, Majestic Ocean’ how you inspire me wholly,
You never relinquish, so you remain unaffected,
The many facets of the real life, you personify,
I dive deep into you to explore and experience!

‘Oh, Dear Ocean’, your tranquility is so envious,
Yet, the devastation your fury brings, I fear.
Mysteries, treasures you hide within your womb,
Often indulges me a secret odyssey to the abyss!

‘Oh, Mother Ocean’, your compassion is eminent,
You pacify the restiveness of soul, as I watch,
So you absorb the very melancholic salt of tears,
And dissolves the pain with your caress of breeze!

'Oh, Granduer Ocean', with your grace, you welcome,
The glorious sun from the ocean depth of horizon,
The sight mesmerizes many from time immemorial,
And entice the world with your energy and cheers!

Y..... A flake of truth

A flake of truth
A crumb of honesty
A dropp of kindness
A grain of humility

Himalayan mounts of truth
Thousands loafs of honesty
Oceanic fluxes of kindness
Truck loads of humility

From a good start
To a lofty destination

More Than Fine

When I wake in the morning,
I want to blow into pieces.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.
When Im up with the sunrise
I want more than just blue skies.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.
Im not giving up, giving up, not giving up now.
Im not giving up, giving up, not backing down.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
When Im wet with the sunshine.
I want more than just a good time.
I want more than just ok, more than just ok.
Im not giving up, giving up, not giving up now.
Im not giving up, giving up, not selling out.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
More than fine, more than bent on getting by.
More than fine, more than just ok.
More than oceans away from the dawn.

Ocean Of Feelings

In this ocean of feelings I’m drowning
The waves are pulling me in
This ocean is too deep it’s too strong
Save me if u can I cannot save myself
The ocean is too big n I’m too small
The storms that are coming will shatter me in to pieces
When the feelings r all dead then the ocean is not there
All there is left is dry land
And in this land I lie there shattered by the ocean that was once there….

Salomey

Now i know the worth of my love towards you and,
I will swim the oceans to meet you;
Now i know the worth of your love towards me and,
You will swim the oceans to meet me as well;
But, your name Salomey will be remembered always.

Pearls

A pearl in an ocean of dreams,
What can I say, shot the beams?

A pearl in an ocean of hopes,
All I got was a lot of nopes.

A pearl in an ocean of fears,
Just hand me the beers.

Why a pearl in an ocean,
It has no motion?

(The pearl in me, it's my birthstone.)

Tears..Peace..Night Smile..Fear..Time..Fate. The Seven Oceans Of Pain

Swimming across the first ocean, i met my friend-tears
he has been living there, for so many many years
he keeps count of all the tears, i have shed
on every tear, her name is tagged, and my future is read.

Swimming across the second ocean, i met my friend-peace
he left me, the day my heart shattered to pieces
im the master of peace, said, he'll keep the shattered pieces whole
i'll hand your heart over to you, when i departure with your soul.

Swimming across the third ocean, i met my friend-night
he lives there holding on to my dreams so very tight
in every dream, there's a showcase, a portrait of my never ending love
love, love destiny only lies in the heavens above.

Swimming across the fourth ocean, i met my friend :) smile
he deserted me the day she refused to walk down the aisle
capturing all the sadness that lies beneath my face
he said go i'll keep them safe, there'll be in your memory for you to chase.

Silence Oceans

Oceans of life,
Oceans in one's life
are wonderful,
Heart is one ocean
Brain is another ocean,
mind is the third,
Trifles are fourth,
Intelligence and wit make fifth,
wisdom and knowledge sixth,
God and Love are seventh!
Soul is the land,
Raised above these oceans
And look as their shore,
Every instant a wave of thought hits the shore!

High tides of happiness,
low tides of sorrow,
High tides of success,
Low tides of failure hit the shore!

Oceanic Humour

Oceanic Humour?

Does a sardine play
Hide and seek with another fish
And laugh about it?

Does a lobster joust
With a big Alaska crab
Just for amusement?

Wit on the sea’s floor
Giggling eels on Dogger bank
Slippery gayety?

Can a tiger shark
Tell another shark a story
That has a fun bite?

Are ocean’s beings
As stern as the old Talibans

The ocean is a central image. It is the symbolism of a great journey.

The Supreme Transformation

A dropp of water cannot include the ocean
but the ocean includes a dropp of water.

But if this dropp of water
drops into the ocean,
and loses itself, loses its identity,
then that dropp has become the ocean.

I cannot include God,
but God surely includes me.
But if.........

Vacuum

Silence cannot be simply silent
For it's swirled in burning memories
Grudging heart adventuring victoriously
Put out the fire with oceanic tears
Senile wedlock and rancid life are the eyes
In swollen emptiness
Now gazing into the remote vacuum

Bag Pipes

A ship-yard celebration is to accede
no sailor from a new boat will abscond
to abrogate drinks, of a wishing deed
Oceans to challenge and far beyond.

And there the bag-pipe players cond
on ethnic island tunes, and aural modes
as Nautilus dance and gals respond
like oceanic waves to acclaimed nodes.

The adage of players' hypnotic tunes
invite every young to a dance agog,
men forms with girls to smile, as balloons
fly colorfully, with every toast of grog.

The gals smile to the well chosen male,
in this feast of agon to renew a toll
of ocean routes against storms and gales,
just to return to moors and their call.

We Sing Our Love In Life Worships

'hope always to write more
not to be a good poet'

the words of my friend
Hosny Soliman defined
my thoughts perfectly

to write just a little more
to gift just a little more
to give just a little more

with no thought wasted
upon desire to write
a good poem a great poem

poetic thoughts passed
through me part of mind
song whale song sung

through huge oceans

Wavy Ocean Vavroovahana Patra

Wavy blue Ocean attracts travellers day and night;
Bay of Bengal sings the Glory of Jagannath with delight.
God’s creation is an everlasting beauty;
Passers-by enjoy the beauty with gaiety.

Ocean kisses the Shore day and night;
As the beloved kisses the lover with delight.
The rivers mingle in the Ocean beautifully;
As Souls mingle in Supreme soul delightfully.

Ocean attracts the rivers day and night;
As God attracts devotees with delight.
Real devotee hankers after salvation;
Drinks the nectar from the lap of creation.

Poet’s mind is broad as the Ocean;
Lives enjoying the beauty of creation.
Depicts verses concentrating mind on Jagannath;
He is the Supreme Soul, a brook of mirth.

Call Of Love

I walked towards the ocean
As she began to roll and began to roar
Then she put in in a daze, I remembered today
As I thought of a woman, that I knew once before.
Her eyes where as deep as the ocean
Her soul as loving as the ocean is blue
Her skin as white, as the sand that night,
A statement, was never as true.
The breeze then went through my hair
As though as a woman was standing there,
She then touched my heart and kissed my lips,
At the ocean, I just stood and stared.
The ocean then took itself a form
Was a form to set myself and soul free
So then I closed my eyes and I fantasized
And then I accepted the ocean, inside of me.

How inappropriate to call this planet Earth when it is quite clearly Ocean.
