My Second Poem - THE OCEAN

********THE OCEAN****************************

The waves are mighty and rise so high

Palpable is the feeling, the end is so nigh

Mightiest of the mighty mortals, can never dare, to conquer

Almighty, the only one, who can tame the tides to stay calmer

The ocean is so calm, it barely looks to frighten

Yet, it is so menacing, when unleashes ruthless pandemonium

Calm Ocean is utopia of such fun and blitheness

Contrarian Ocean, is yet, full of subjugation and monstrous wilderness

Such specter of duality, barely seen elsewhere

Only a human self, assimilate the duality, in his inner

The tranquility of a sage, restlessness of a calf, on the same podium

The agitation and tranquility rarely seen as closest companion

When I am agitated, I go to ocean, in the night

Then the waves appear to dance, in the high tide

My nerves, become calmer, witnessing the, unfolding macabre

The pandemonium in me, succumbs to the ultimate mighty ruler

From the time, I began making sense and comprehend

Always found the ocean, out of dejection, to be my friend

Times I flirt the waves to challenge the supremacy

Though I am reminded of the eventual authority.
