Absence

Crescent of a moon craving fullness;
A stream flowing gently,
starving little fishes
looking for little deeds of goodness;
A hungry shark ,
relentless to create a red sea;
The wrath of a volcano
lying dormant;
A mourning peacock
looking up at the skies
desperate to perform the antics
in the downpour;
An autumn tree
whose branches have bared;
A heap of wet clay
lying untouched
in the potters wheel;
An artist whose creations
have exhausted;
I can feel the absence everywhere;
I can feel the absence inside me…
