The Other Side Of Nature

Sipping coffee from my cup.,

I stood admiring the sea enchanting, Enraptured by its bewitching
enigma...
Unnaturally quiet the depth of the deep...

A faint uneasiness stirred...

Brushed aside the thought

Intent on relishing the magical moment.
The frolicking foamy flakes

deadly calm with a glint of the sun

A prenotion of foreboding?

I gazed hypnotized...

A slight shifting, the breakers retiring...
My coffee forgotten,

Backing.. Backing..Backing...
And then slowly advancing
Slyly, stealthily, silently,

Like an avenger dark,
gaining momentum
Fascinated.. aghast

Rooted to the spot, I stood..
As realisation dawned

shouted a warning in frenzy,

to the unsuspecting holidayers
mirthing in exhilaration of freedom...

And then....
All hell broke loose!

The breakers herculean

drawing near like claws of death...
Helter- skelter they ran

could not find any shelter.

Enveloped and smothered
in the embrace of death!
A tale of woe buried in its lap!
To be marked in history

A warning to the generation.

Beauty of nature,
Acclaimed and exalted,
Its other face -
Relentless and callous.
This side of nature

to surface when taunted!

A warning reminder
by the mother of all!
