what an earth

I would say,

71 percent is

water surfaced

while 20 percent

is land covered

wouldn't they whisper us some?, hey!

with great power comes great responsibility

Life on earth began

in the depths of the ocean

of wise humans back in ancient

we may think this as

what a big deal?

a small organism made

this to a massive deal

under low-life pressure

and high-life condition

put to test

to see its operation

with sheer patience,

and potential action

we can witness

the outcome of action

One moment of patience

can ward off great disaster

cyclone, hurricanes,

storms, drought,

with gigantic Tsunami

passing like,

“You don’t know me”

water calamities

are relatable to life

no other than

our reaction to things

causing too many disasters

the calm before the storm

Emotions are like

a gush of waves,

control it to

a state of poise

no need to follow

the so-called norm

to enter a bubble

of mere calm

there is no hype

in pre-announce

unleash the results

announce after

Little drops form mighty ocean

water teach us

the process of life

that create landforms,

of deep canyons

Individually we are one

divided we are none

unite folks as ocean,

far mighty when

we stand as one

If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water

you know what’s magic

in humans

to fight the life of ill

and demons

deep down all we yearn for

four letters

deep as ocean and high above

yes, that healer called love

there’s no end to

this never ending poetry

it will flow as though

as watery

Oh, I have to water my neem tree

life is simple

you just be free

“Be water my friend, be formless, shapeless like water” — Bruce Lee
