Shopping bags<BR />rustle during the day, later,<BR />there is laughter, there are hot meals.<BR />Finally, under the quiet silver moon,<BR />there is the swift cutting of air in the park,<BR />where there are two, apart, <BR /><DIV>riding bicycles beside each other.</DIV><BR />I suppose all is motion for you also.<BR />But it is motion oriented elsewhere,<BR />to say the least. The days began<BR />worrying about how bills were to be <BR />paid, for then and later. Lunch was <BR />arguing and coldness, never seeming<BR />to go beyond the beginning. And finally,<BR />there was no rest under the white moon, <BR />because there was me crying, demanding <BR /><DIV>to be fed.</DIV><BR />The sun and moon look down on me,<BR />for the same reason they are scared<BR />to speak to you.</p> <DIV></DIV> </DIV> <DIV class="post-footer"> <P class="post-footer-line post-footer-line-1"> <SPAN class="post-author"> Posted by ashok </SPAN> <SPAN class="post-timestamp"> at <A title="permanent link" href="http://inrethinking.blogspot.com/2006/10/daughter-to-her-parents-on-their.html" class="timestamp-link">4:22 PM</A> </SPAN> <SPAN class="post-comment-link"> </SPAN> <SPAN class="post-backlinks post-comment-link"> </SPAN> <SPAN class="post-icons"> <SPAN class="item-action"> <A title="Email Post" href="http://www2.blogger.com/email-post.g?blogID=31924961&postID=116146579508747259"> <SPAN class="email-post-icon"> </SPAN> </A> </SPAN> <SPAN class="item-control blog-admin pid-813997078"> <A title="Edit Post" href="http://www2.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=31924961&postID=116146579508747259"> <SPAN class="quick-edit-icon"> </SPAN> </A> </SPAN> </SPAN> </p> <P class="post-footer-line post-footer-line-2"> <SPAN class="post-labels"> </SPAN> </p> <P class="post-footer-line post-footer-line-3"></p> </DIV> </DIV> <DIV id="comments" class="comments"> <A name="comments"></A> <H4> 0 comments: </H4> <DL id="comments-block"> </DL> <P class="comment-footer"> <A href="http://www2.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=31924961&postID=116146579508747259&isPopup=true">Post a Comment</A> </p> <DIV id="backlinks-container"> <DIV id="Blog1_backlinks-container"> </DIV> </DIV> </DIV> </DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/7F08F067-A053-4AC6-89B2-839AF3E2154B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
