Into the Ocean Soup

With tiny timid staggering steps I traverse,
Through a gate amid howling ocean of readings,
A whirly wind ringing rhymes of diverse,
Helps the ocean waves bringing tome of meanings.

Woven are these pages in poetic verse,
With bare threads of our deepest feelings,
You will find laughter, tears and remorse 
and words of wisdom, prayer and healings.

With throbbing heart, through the book in gaited horse,
Wandered, wondering mastery of poetic ceilings,
Burning my passion, poesy angels appeared in disperse,
Offering tortie trinkets and helping hands in my dealings.

I meant to compliment you for rhyming your final stanza with the rhyming words from Krish's stanza. It gave a nice continuity.
