The Ocean Wants To Remain Calm Poem by Mohammad Younus

The ocean wants to remain calm...
...but still the mild music is produced...
...by its splashing waves...
...running one after another to caress...
...its shores;
But, on the full moon night...
...the moon causes tides on its surface...
...with a view to producing rhythmic music...
...and making them jump high to kiss its brilliant face;
O lover, watching the tides on the full moon night...
...tell me, do you want to dwell in ocean's silence...
...or desire to drown in rhythmic sound...
...of the jumping tides?
