Another night of thunder,
Dark as ghost,
Anyone would surrender,
Anyone could be lost,
A ship mighty is floating like a drunken elephant,
On a sea that has no end,
Claws of waves make him quaver,
He’s enough strong to fight such weather,
Going miles and miles at regular speed,
For no reason he needs to be worried,
Sea seems angrier this time,
But he’ll put his efforts at its prime,
Nothing can divert him from his destination,
Neither will he think of procrastination,
He has conquered this sea many times before,
He’s sure he’ll safely reach at the shore,
And so the will of sea is well concrete,
It doesn’t want another defeat,
This mighty ship has beaten it much,
Every time it fell on his feet,
So the fight is on…
And going on…
A smash of abrupt wave…
Thrashes the deck… makes him pray…
Even before he could think of a defense,
Another knock makes holes in his confidence,
As navigation deck goes down,
Without his captain he is own his own,
Another series of waves and a loud roar,
Water runs harshly on each floor,
When at its peak, desperate sea reaches,
Ship is tattered in multiple pieces,
A final roar and a victory hooter,
It’s his jungle; he’s the King and the only shooter,
Night is dark yet it shines bright,
Winner is the one, who wins the last fight.

I was caught up in your poem, which you so very discriptively delivered…and all i can say my brother is that i really loved it! I almost thought I was there. Good writers can do that with words and you did it well…God bless!

You just made my day! Thank you Deb!
I like the feel of your writing, I only wish I could read it untranslated. I feel like I am missing something from it when reading it in English, but it holds true enough to your concept and I like the force of effort it instills in the reader. Thank you for liking my work as well!
I always enjoy reading poetry from fellow poets. Thanks for liking my poem!
