Piece Of The Afternoon In The Cafe Poem by Sari Mavi

I hurried into a café.
Fragrant smell of cooking filled the room.
Hungry!

A beautiful girl approached my table with a cheerful greeting.
'Welcome. We will serve with comfort. Please choose. This list of menus that you need. '

I do not take long to make a choice.
I who are starving.
'Thank you, ' said the pretty waitress friendly, 'Please wait, we serve shortly thereafter.'
I nodded, agreed.

While imagining food delivered soon.
I glanced across the street. Passing people running.
My eyes caught a reality.. A thin and ragged boys are churning out garbage. Then he got and eaten.

Sudden, my hunger disappeared. Although fragnant smell of cooking filled the room.
I waved at someone who was standing in the corner of the room.
'Miss, please get me two orders. While the one, for him..' My index leads to someone across the street.

Beautiful girl turning her head, following the direction of my finger across the street.

'Do not let him go, before the food was on hand. Promise.'
'Do not say anything. Your duty is only to deliver the food.'

Beautiful girl smiling sweetly and nodded.
'Of course. I understand what I need to do for your request. Trust me.'

Thank you, Miss. God bless you.
