Poetry flows like water, carrying the rhythms of the coast in verse and memory.
Morning Tide
Salt-kissed dawn breaks
over fishermen's prayers,
their boats like folded hands
waiting for blessing.
The sea speaks in whispers
today, gentle against
the hull of memory,
rocking dreams to shore.
Monsoon Song
Rain drums on red tiles,
a rhythm older than
written words, older than
the grandfather clock
that stopped telling time
the day you left.
Dawn voices carrying across the water, ancient melodies that guide boats home......
Verses that flow like tidal waters, carrying the essence of coastal living in every line......
The sea speaks in metaphors, teaching lessons only those who listen can understand......
