Leaflets From My Life - Snorkelling In Havelock Island Poem by Geeta Radhakrishna Menon
Leaflets From My Life - Snorkelling In Havelock Island
There are moments in one's life,
Truly wondrous and joyous,
To me, it has always been with Nature,
Taking me to a realm of heavenly heights!
They talk of heaven above the sky,
They talk of a space where angels sing,
They talk of an area where only saints live,
To me! Earth is the ultimate place of a throbbing life!
When I went snorkelling in Havelock island,
With my darling daughter Radhika,
We discovered that there is a lovely life under
Water, mesmerizing and fantabulous!
What we saw was breath-taking and beautiful,
When we floated under the emerald green sea,
When the ocean displayed hues so incredible,
We even forgot that we were not swimmers at all!
What a fantastic burst of colours and designs!
We were charmed by a variety of Invertebrates,
We floated like in a dream between corals and coral reefs,
Wonderful, magical moments under the sea of Nemori island!
A beautiful island so nicely described by the poetess thet the description takes its readers' imagination to the Havelock Island.
We are all part of nature, but we spent most of our life abusing her. Once in a while a lovely poem like this turns up and we are reminded of the great beauty of nature around us. Hopefully it will also open the eyes of those robbing nature and make them change their ways. Thanks Geeta.
Hi, Geeta! With this you summon my experience snorkeling off the big island of Hawaii—I wish I had done it more. It was, as you describe, amazing. And there (where I lived the better part of two years) one didn’t have to swim far to see these wonders. Your second stanza reminds me of The Great Divorce by C.S. Lewis where heaven is described as a mirror of our amazing earth. Blessings! -Glen
Thank you Glen. I am sure it reminds of Snorkelling in Hawaii Islands. Its really amazing. I must read the Great Divorce by C.S.Lewis. There is so much to learn from you, Glen.
Hi Geeta, Beautiful poem on the wonders of nature- underwater life and colors. Of course, snorkeling is such a wonderful experience, I cherish my first experience. There is a taunting temptation for another round... Thank you Geeta for prompting to recall the experience... A lovely 100++
Thank you Unni. Glad that you are tempted to go for a second Snorkelling adventure and wonder. God bless.
You're able to pack so much into such a small space. You took me right to the place...thank you for that. Lovely
Thank you so much Shannon. I am happy that you liked the poem and the experience. Stay blessed.
