What a pleasant day it is to wander around with a camera on the coast of Mauritius. It is a real feast to the eyes. You feel like staying there whole day and night watching the rolling waves and their beautiful forms when they crash against the rocks. The beauty and the sounds of the waves have no doubt inspired many a poet to pen down their feelings in words that have remain memorable.

We have Shakespeare and many others.

 Like as the waves make towards the                 pebbl’d shore,

  So do our minutes hasten to their end;

               ………………………………………………                                                                 (Shakespeare)

Look at this beautiful poem I have just found.

Waves

The rolling waves against the hard rocks harshly beat

Upon the sandy shores, prostrate at my feet

The rolling times, the hard hearts harshly treat

The whole world will the gentle heart kindly greet.

The seacoast of Mauritius has bountiful scenery that appeal to the inquisitive heart of many adventurous people.

Here are some more pictures to quench your thirst.

More Pictures…

Some more

Still some more..

It never ends… The last snap was taken on a small island around Mauritius. Can you tell me which island it is?

My thoughts if they can please you..

                      1. The sea is blue

                           but the fish are not blue.

                          My heart says…

                          something is blue

                          which the eyes do not see.

                                       2. I saw the sea

                                           disturb on the surface,

                                           groaning and growling

                                           full of power and force

                                           fuming and foaming

                                           like a pressure cooker,

                                           very calm inside

                                           without any pressure

                                  waves rush in to caress the sand

                                           only to rush out again

                                          in peace and pride. 

              3. Sun, sand and wind

                  make the day pleasant.

                 Wandering around

                with family and friends

                keeps you hearty and healthy.
