Series of firsts > First time seeing the ocean!

 i love the ocean

endless mass of water

merging with horizon

the calming feeling of just staring

at the wide unknown

first time i saw this wonder

was in dar es salaam

circa 1993

we had gone to visit dad

it was a public beach i think

and he said

wash your face with the water

as a way paying homage

and i looked at it

with utter amazement

and realised why

in olden days

people worshiped the ocean!
