Realize The Big Ocean In You Poem by Bashyam Narayanan

Realize The Big Ocean In You



How many times you might have crossed
Me without even noticing the happening
Down under

While you hurry up there upon the
Bridge above me
With a number of
Uncertainties in mind
I am flowing slowly and steadily
With a clarity of mind
As to where I will be reaching and when

I am none other the Brooke
With a very clear water
Gently crawling towards east
In the midst of the pine tree land
Of New Jersey

Where is time for you
To look at the spineless tadpole
Kicking on my clear surface
Or to glance at the glow worm
Whisking around the dark green bush
On my ever wet banks

Have you ever seen me helping
Squirrels, hares and others
With very clear mineral water
For which you pay
When bottled and sold

No big game animals appear these days
But a number of small gamers
And at times even snakes
Take refuge on the comfortable
Wet sand along my flow

Why do not you
Come once
Follow my track
See how
I keep growing enroute
And at the end of it all
I become a very big river
Only to be called
A little later the biggest ocean

This journey of yours
Will help you realize
The big ocean within you as well
