Sea – Man
Sea
with waves,
created by winds, currents and tides,
rolling continuously, majestic along.
Friendly caressing,
it carries boats and people on its back.
But suddenly it changes;
Its friendliness turns into a beastly roaring,
which like a Minotauros,
demands its tribute of human lives.
And with its enormous force,
it is able to ruin everything in its way.
Man,
Crown in the Divine creation,
with brain – intelligent, thinking
Can achieve the most remarkable things for mankind.
But like the sea,
Is capable to ruin everything with weapons and evilness.
* * *
However there is a vast distinction between the two.
The sea ruins without purpose.
