A hint of why

A hint of why                                                             
 
The Ocean has come again
to tell us we are not adrift;
 
(more like a river running, towards
and away, of urgency and purpose).
 
The Ocean has come again,
with embracing, sighs and gazes,
 
the wiping away of tears,
to tell us we are not islands.
 
The Ocean, Its labyrinths
of Love and endeavor,
 
vast, breathless depths,
come again
  
to tell us we have no shore,
strongest evidence to the contrary;
 
no beginning nor end; enemies
and companions – all are our very own Self.
 
The Ocean has come again
to tell us our loneliness
 
is but a bitter-tinged drop
in the immeasurable loneliness of God.
 
O child of God, such an import offers a hint
of why Meher lived in silence.
