Poems  
Treasure Hunt
by Jayati Gupta

In my dream
Secured inside a submarine
Exploring the unknown
Depth of the ocean
In motion serene.
The octopus in a dance
With its tentacles;
The flora fauna in a trance
With their miracles;
Shoals of rainbow colors prancing and straining to this symphony,
Like a queen bee our submarine buzzing and whining
In competition with fishes to win over mermaids
Playfully, we were searching for their fortress.
Divers delight under water, pristine
Away from earthy pandemonium
A world within!
