The Seashore

Seashore is compared to life ( particularly a man's)

In the Palette: dark, white and red
Creation of H2O
Layers on layers
Accumulated time's power infinity ago

Embraced by alluring sea shells
When rebuffed, all set to give hells
Crabs, jelly or sting ray
Might look fatal
But make you realise,
Its(sea's) dirty way

Relaxing the whale's body
Or the imprint of baby turtles
Gales come and go,
Ignoring the hurdles

Bottle of message arrives
And the driftwood,
Refuged over Shiny Sand
Seized by waves, giving rumble cries

Not fortunate, it gets washed away
In the Storm
But with a promise,
Cycle will persist, in own kinda way

Author's Note

H20 - god
Black, white-,red :races
In first para
It's all about man's life experiences and people in his life
Sea shell - woman
Crabs, rays- friends

Whale - death of loved ones
Baby turtle - birth of babies ( son n daughters)

Bottle of message and wood - elders teaching moral duties

And at last para :
Death of man

Great metaphors and thanks for explaining in your Author’s Note! Great form, flow, imagery, cadence, rhyme. In the sea, the story of earth and mankind are ever-told. Love this poem!:)
