Underwater

Insentient, she lay on the beach,

couldn’t feel the water, unable to reach.

The day was balmy & sun was high,

she wiped her face with a heavy sigh.

Slowly she tried to wake & sit,

after a minute she rose to her feet.

Stepped into the water, didn‘t hesitate,

deeper she went as if an inveterate.

Suddenly she stopped & dived in,

underwater she went chanting within.

Cursed the sea with her glance,

for gulping all her dearest ones.
