Shoring Towards and Away!

Anchored to a new vision
And decked for a fresh beginning,
Where thrill is the ‘way of life’
Sea life is my chosen podium.

Here I am, very much close to the nature,
The sun, the stars, the moon.
And the winds gushing to their tune!
All of these, my unfailing companions.

Switching between sea time,
And the much awaited shore time;
Am all set to encompass the beauty,
Of the two diverse worlds.

All of us geared and poised,
Ready to embrace the sea.
Witness the turbulence and serenity,
So also the unseen fury.

Nesting us from uncertainties,
Shipping across is our second ‘Home’.
Where we stay, knitted together.
Initially by design, later by choice!

It’s only on shore,
That the berths matter.
Where one is a captain,
And another, a sailor.

As we sail into the waters,
We are all ONE!
Accompanying one another,
For the good, the best and the worst.

Our varied instincts make the journey
All the more interesting.
With a few common threads to bind us,
Into friends forever, both offshore and onshore!
