On a moonlit night walking barefoot on sandy beach
Solace, salvation and mental tranquility within reach
Thrilling sensation of rippling waves tickling my toes
A perfect remedy for wiping out worries and woes

Soothing rhapsody of rushing waves with gentle breeze
Cooling balm putting travails and turmoil in deep freeze
Wishing for lifelong possession of such precious treasure
Thoughts of missing such joys  depress beyond measure

A fleet of fishing boats head out to sea in dead of night
To renew their battle with cruel sea and nature’s might
Fishing for livelihood such a noble and honest profession
Requiring seafarer skills with resolve and timely precision

Profession of fishing is love story sweet and sour
With moods of  welcoming seas swinging to dour
Strong single minded devotion sticks to this path
Hunger and passion prepares them for any wrath

Fishing in troubled waters malicious passion prime
Leaders of all hues vigorously indulge in this crime
Stoking the flames with intemperate demagoguery
Adding fuel to fire with preaching religious bigotry

World has invented ideal recipe for monumental disaster
With energetic embrace and eagerness to be a master
Urgent life saving need of the hour is thoughtful sobriety
To develop and promote caring compassionate society

A society at odds with itself is not the right note
Cheerful, happy and friendly setup gets my vote
For joys of beach walks bereft of worrying yokes
And admiring sincere and diligent fishermen folks
