I’ve always been fond of the sea – perhaps because I live in the mainland. Visiting a beach is a luxury. I love the way the waves playfully tickle my toes. At the same time they warn me – I’m aware that the sea is trying to pull me close…
It is the Bay of Bengal. The sea here is rough, and can be very dangerous if one goes too far.
But beyond the shoreline, the deep sea is calm, and the fisherman guides his little boat, in search of someone’s meal.

You’ve stayed in Kochi and Vizag for a while. That could be a reason. Anyways, hope classes are going good.

I’ve not visited Kochi… I was in kinder-garden when i was in Vizag… Its only Chennai that I recall when I think of beaches 🙂 I’m in Chennai right now – so no classes for me 🙂

Love the Bay of Bengal. I spent some time in Chennai and Sri Lanka. You are right, the ocean can be a subtle seductress.

A beautiful nugget of writing. I hadn’t even noticed the boat until I finished reading.
