The kettle keeps on

boiling…boiling…boiling

Bloody boiling

Thank God!

It has stopped

 

*

At last it has boiled

now appears the clock

ticking…ticking…ticking

spasmodically

 

*

I am cognizant

that steam is drifting

wafting lingering

around the funnel

 

*

Before it calms down

comes to its senses

condescends to apply

Thermodynamics!
