TWO FACES


Every morning
we come to you
enjoy your infinite beauty
and your serene, tranquil ambience.
Every morning
we come to you
and get locked in your cool, warm ambience 
which lifts our spirits up to the sky
and make our moments exhilarating.
Every morning
we come to you
spend long moments with you
and with deep pain and agony
bid bye to you
with the promise of meeting you
the next morning.
Every evening
visitors in droves come to you
to witness the orange-red Sun
being swallowed by you gradually
to witness your fiery, frightening face
the violent cries of the
waves rocking the shores
the reckless winds blowing through your nostrils
as if to scare away the visitors
who are bathed in the frothing
yellow light sneaking into
the sea-shore from the
sodium-vapour lamps enveloping the city.
We do wonder
why your fierce, frightening face
why the strong winds blowing
through your nostrils
why violent waves rocking
the sea-shores
are more inebriating and
enchanting for the evening
visitors….
