She sits
watching Shail getting
an oil massage,
a comfort rub,
and wails in silence,
as Shail goes off
to wash.
A far away look,
a distant memory,
and
as the wind
ruffles and smoothens her ears,
blowing around her,
she harks back
to the time,
when
hers
was to sit back,
and be licked ,
all around her wet face,
by another maternal wet face,
sadly,
now not with her ……
