River swells ,
Clouds burst in spells ,
Winds blow ,
Earth quakes ,
and Sea goes wild !
Lighthouse bells ,
and quietens soon…..
Do they have a mind ?
Do they ponder ?
Some day , anger trails……
on others
Serene , pacific ,
Calmn prevails !
Who defines ,
What decides ..?
Course of action
Constructive
or destruction……
Mountains melting ,
Rivers rising ,
Earth Shattering ,
Mammoth display !
Physics , Astronomy ,
and Energy matters …..
Potential and Kinetic ,
sometimes Magnetic !
Properties of Brain ,
Attitude of Mind ….
Nature has Ego !
Why challenge ?
Enormity ,
Best in tranquility…..
Dare take it granted ,
and River swells ,
Clouds bursts in spells ,
Winds blow ,
Earth quakes ,
and Sea goes wild …….

An engaging and multi-layered poem.
“Beset not, O tranquility
your enormity
in banal platitude
of which humans have
taken an ego out of you
Dare,
…and River swells
Winds blow ,
Earth quakes ,
and Sea goes wild…”
Mind blowing write!
