Of Water Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Of water

After done with my juice
Self-made from dried fruits,
Took mug of dark coffee.

Cup in hand, went outside
Walked slow, looked around,
Watched nature and sky…

Saw plane flying
"Bravo, " came on lips
"…to mankind, siblings
When compared..."

Felt something, or someone
Suddenly shut my mouth…

Looked into my coffee,
Remembered showering
And the juice, and the tea,
Water in everything,
From eyes to my tongue
And flesh and blood…

Recalled my swimming
In the ponds, lakes, and seas.

"Wow, wow, wow…
To water…"

Froze tongue,
Thoughts flew to sky,
Galaxies and beyond…

"How come we, the mankind,
Selfishly are proud
That we know up and down,
Have achieved and have done
The things that we copied
From what did exist? "

What about the water?
