SEISMIC MOTHER INDIAN OCEAN

“Sea wants me to return to 
conch shell from whence I was born 
Here comforted I can curl away from boisterous hurls..” Poet, from poem : Sea Wants Me

~~~~~~<><><++++++~~~~~#[][]{}##ooooOOO~


Indian Ocean      
                          mystical matchless !

     lapping restless facets of my traversing Spirit 
        swirling its depth in tepid waters 

                            WHOLE HOLY WHOLE 

as in mother's womb my foetus burled curled
coddled swam, syllables skipping on shores 
_________half sunk messages > Diaries 

           dreaming waves soothing spuming whales
                        holy grail beyond blue BLUE
no language voice your reflective transformations 
         from ripples to tortuous tsunamis 
             brushing coasts >> Asia’s edge, Madagascar’s spine
                 Africa, Australia, Antarctic 

                    paddles settling into breath of dusk
Ocean of personas holographic oiled, gassed !

you croon about awakened ports, ship  l a n e s 
        along turquoise tongues of poets 
            as we refuge take in your sleepless depths 
                drifting without compass towards 
       unknown horizons blue Blue BLUE~~~~~<><>***
      
 becoming liquid caverns, fragranced coral reefs 
      ocean chasms sprout dolphin verses for India,
China, Indonesia, tube sea urchins chant Beloved ! Anchor Anchor >>>>B E L oVed

                 Beloved ! slack tectonic plates consider their next yawn           ___? Or groan
        shells rumbling 
storms, tidal depths, oysters whisper antidotes
      not to dismiss, peering into Poseidon's mist
                                wizardry seafloor volcanoes 

          rhyme surrender or diving away fetid fears 
           with ancient angling coelacanths dear near
              blue you suffer toxicities as we extract nourishing bounties with vile human hash !

     wilderness of WONDER selflessness we cannot 
             negate, swimming echoed 
                                            eternal Truth

          SEISMIC MOTHER INDIAN

O C E A N  …O C E A N …..~~~~~....{}{}

    we gurgle……()[][]~~~ as resonated vibrations 
              Varunani rises teal stillness untrophied 

You AWE us hiding Neptune's bugle  ~~~~~~~~
