The early morning stroll on the Mamallapuram beach brought out the poet in Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Modi said while strolling on the beach, he got lost in "conversation" with the ocean. "This conversation carries the world of my feelings. I am sharing the feeling with you in the form of a poem," he wrote on Twitter in Hindi on Sunday.

Modi on Saturday had released a three-minute video of his plogging on the beach where he was seen collecting waste and urged the people to ensure that public places are clean and tidy. In the eight-paragraph signed poem, Modi describes the ocean's relationship with the sun, the waves, and its pain. His collection of poems titled "A Journey" is already available.
