AIRPORT
Heard more sincere promises than a church wall,
Where distance begins and ceases just by a flight's call,

Arrivals have waiting eyes and hearts high,
Departures have seen eyes -wetting and hearts dry,

Across the globe the smiles get shared,
At times the part becomes unable to bear,

There a gang of pals with adventure gets ready to fly through the blue,
Here a homesick hostelier with books packed says adieu,

The pack of people, clocks- clicking, load of luggages and the announcement summons,
Makes the airport a mini replica of this spheroid for a reason,

A place which teaches the importance of absence,
And emphasises the joy of presence!
