Ode To Mighty Ocean

You are an enchanting cynosure Beyond my naked eyes could see; An unbounded briny exposure Where tiny drops assemble sea; Unpretentious blustery waves Evolve from phenomenal ripples; Flowing endless murmur cripples Heart deep embedded peeves. Tuneless prayers by lonely seamen Resonate in salty humid air; Buried history at fathom unknown Sleeps among tussocks somewhere; Wonder world beneath farthest reef Inhibited clams and cockles; Heedfully shape pure white pearls For jewels to bride in brief. Though you could not appease Thirst of a weary sailor; Every curious eye, you please By your incessant glamour; Don't mislead fishermen's sojourns Bring them soon home safe back; To vanquish massive ships on wreck Don't turn gales to hurricanes. You agitate poet's serene mind With your uncanny beauty at sunset; Heavy down pour along monsoon wind, Roaring thunders echo from south west. Furious currents push to ashore Rolling upwelling rummages the floor Provoking flash sends terrible blow You,potent queen! Where is your glow? Swarnapali Liyanage 27/07/2011
