Ode To Water Poem by Harun Al Nasif

Ode To Water

Rating: 4.8


Nay, I am no worshiper of nature
but as I am a bubble
floating on this earthen heaven
I just could not shake off
its aquatic inertia.
This gleeful festivity of my being
and this passionate lust for life
is the legacy of water.
Once as I took a deep draught
off the fountain of life
with an intense thirst,
today all through my body
flowing are the numerous streams.
In the pervading wilderness
of this sear earth
I am the itinerant colors
of the triumphant waters,
I am the bloom of life
blown out of the pollen of water
May I be the combatant child
arrived leaving the matrix of water
but since my very birth
this carpet of water
is the prayer-mat of mine.

You can call it aquatic complex-
have I no objection,
but why laying reckless blame
of worshiping inanimate nature?
