! ! Ocean Of Verse Part I! Comments

Reema, Having read all the three parts, I must say that it is a wonderful example of creative writing, with expression of philosophical truth! - Raj Nandy

Passionate and emotional - so it must be - you talk about an Ocean! Well penned!

As Easwaran Sir said....this poem is simply classic. wonderful imagery sathya narayana

The poem opens with a scene where the poet is talking to the ocean- the mind here- the poet herself a paining wound…the phrases ‘walk near the ocean’ and ‘no guard and shield’ indicate unguarded pain- prone to attack again- soliciting help from mind…atropine and arrow indicate near fatal wound…the wound needing a surgery to heal… Atropine again means the paralytic stage needed prior to surgery…aroma indicates the relief from pain and the revival of senses…akin to revival from pre surgical anesthesia…fumigate indicates disinfection to be carried out after the cut open act… The poet next requests the ocean for pearls and corals… indicative of a sincere confession of the painful experience to mind never to get wounded again…and in the end, in the poet’s request to the ocean, the phrase not to give violent waves- indicates the pleading of the pained experience to mind not to induce troubles and turbulence ever again… A heart felt write in the true sense…this poem is a good example how a creative mind when sober can become more creative… well used metaphors...+10
