Serenity or Ferocity
A serene Ocean,
Glistening in the sunlight
Ever enticing in the moonlight
Waves that soothe
Bring spontaneous laughter and fun
As they kiss the feet ever so gently
Then one day---
They did rise like a towering wall
Swept off all in a flash
Tore babes from mother’s arms
And tossed them like paper boats heartlessly
How could it be so cruel to the same folk
It nourished and fed like a mother?
Kindness and gentleness perceptions all
Serenity and ferocity
Two sides of One Ocean
The Ocean simply is
Nature is
Truth is

Beautifully said.
with best wishes,

beautiful at the same time made me think.
The ocean is neither serene nor ferocius but it appears to be so.
the creation is never in paradox.
the opposites dont exist. Even to say 'creation' is wrong because there is neither creation nor destruction but only the subtle becoming gross and the gross becoming the subtle. Simple transformation of intesity and deintensity...In thst process the of transformation, the human mind interprets a million ideas and conceptsof birth,death, young and old, man and woman, rich and poor
health and disease etc...
@here and there: Delighted to see you here and there too!
Dear here and there,
Yes thats it. Interpretations all. You make me understand me better. Even to say what I have said is an interpretation
