Under the starlit sky the rowboat moves
East or West the lone sailor doesn’t know
Horizon beckons from beyond the shade of purple water
Calm and serene lies the ocean beneath
The old rickety boat burdened with dead tons
Years and years of happiness and misery
The boat is heavy....... its heart burdened
With the thought of drowning in ocean grave
Yet Hope swells like sea swells in shinier times
Each day I scan the vastness of the ocean on which I sail
Trying from sunrise to sunset to perceive some change
Alas the morning and setting sun look almost the same
Makes me truly wonder if my mind is playing a game
Sometimes I go to sleep and wake up at sunset and wonder
If it is sunrise or sunset? I look out for the fluttering sea birds
When I hear none I feel it’s time to drown in my words
All days are the same at sea .. all nights the same in the ocean
Tiny ripples, violent storms are the only changes which I can see
So I stop thinking of “old” and “new” and let things be
Creates a serene picture for
Creates a serene picture for me. Very enjoyable.
