Poem:The Waves of Ocean

The waves of ocean
Are here to tell
If we are not there
You will not fall
If you don’t fall
You won’t inquire to me
How to grow against my fellows,
Stronger, wider and taller than me.

We were already made
As you were in the process of making
When we had it here
You were being given strength and mind to follow us.
If we are wide and numerous
You are concentrated and contiguous.

The floods and cyclones and the typhoons
Are the greatest tests for you
To make it count with your mind
That we are just liquid and you are glue.

Along with cyclones there are small breezes
To add to it we make it salty
We take pain to create them
So you don’t find hard to face the bigger one.

Always sail in every challenge-craft and hardship of life,
Because at the depth of ocean and above the limit of sky,
Sits the almighty
Creator and slayer of all,
Wants us to dig deep and soar high.

He is the smith
And make us our life’s architect.
Wanting us to remain intact,
And leave an impact
For someone to stand
A little taller on you
Deeming us as very small
Letting us know that you are not for us
And we are for you and all.
… Dinesh.R.Agarwal.
