REUNION


Saturdays and Sundays are
days for celebration to
her and the children.
After spending six days of
tedious working hours in the office
and covering long distances
he reaches home to the
delight of her and children.
Upon meeting him she turns
a full-blown flower like
a lotus at the sight of Sun in the sky.
On Sundays they go out for
cinemas, shopping malls
and go on a purchasing spree.
With the Sunday sun dipping
in the western horizon
her face turns pale like
the lotus flower and children
lose their steam, enthusiasm and vibrancy.
All spend a disturbing night
and before sun makes his
appearance in the east,
he says bye to her
and kids assuring them of
getting united the coming Saturday evening.
She hides her tears
behind a faint smile
and children turn tearful
with tears streaming
down their faces.
