Melbourne, Australia
Tomorrow, I come
Standing at coffee corner
Some smiling friends, warm
Chilling city, through the window
A lonely bird standing on the catheral’s cross
Cold
Tomorrow, I come
Busy with imaginary cases
Expert ‘client’ and diffificut ‘official’
Laugh sparking from a class
Grimaced ‘opponent’; but you, beauty passing me
Smile
Tomorrow, I come
Involved, interested, questioning
The rules, the laws, the orders
Bored, sleepy, and empty
Fortunately, you’re around me
Remember
One tomorrow, I don’t come
Bared cross on the catheral
Nobody at coffee corner
Soundless classes. Your image lingers
Books and shelves
I have gone, experienced; but
Long I miss you, missing you!
