My little child
a forerunner in meeting appointments
i
s time-keeper
Every three hours
he cries with such sound
making all mad.
Louder he screams
the hungrier he seems to be
gulping the milk.
Hurriedly he drinks
getting choked in the attempt
an impatient child.
Smiles thence after
with sparkle in the eyes
looking very cute.
It is hunger
for both knowledge and food
signals a craving.

One reply on “A Craving——- Haiku.”
Indeed a child has both types of craving.
