Boredom

As the main gate creaked,
eight eyes looked up in unison,
curious, probing and expecting.
Two hungry calves,

sensing their hunger,
dumped a paper bag near them,
the rotting fruit spilling over
on the dusty road.
The young bovines rushed.
Their mother followed suit,
while the eldest stood,
satisfactorily observing
her brood.
They gobbled
and her hunger satiated.
Mother’s divine love, everywhere.
Nourished, her litter ambled away.
Mundane things
that you notice in
world-weariness.
