PAGE NO.: DATE: 7 / Why the poet
was sitting in sea shore
Answers
Explanation:
I felt the breeze on my face, ruffling my hair gently running over the sea, bringing with it the coolness residing in heart of the endless blue ocean…
Full Moon shining above the horizon, adorning the flawless beauty of night making the water droplets in the moonlit ocean shine like a thousand pearls spread over…
A Sea-wave sent the sweet pleasure-wave up my heart as it touched my feet…
Night was quite silent…
Only the waves lent their music… The best one I’ve ever listened…
I softly touched her hand and we intertwined our fingers as a wave broke at the shore throwing cool drops at us…
She cutely rested her head on my shoulder… Her long silky hair falling to my chest…
I ran my fingers through them and… said nothing…. but felt the love she’d spread in the air…
Sitting at the seashore...
I closed my eyes and thought
If isn’t here….
Then….
Where is the Heaven….?
Answer:
The poet is at the sea shore lamenting the death of his friend.
