Shell on the Shore

A nature poem, by Arun, that celebrates the ocean, exclusively for Different Truths.

O, waves of the mighty ocean!
Roar more,
And more,
So, your whisper
Reaches the shore!

And let the flurry of air
That you offer
Wheeze through my core,
So, I would render
A melody that’s dear
For all that has ear
And a moment to spare
To immerse and hear!
