Remembering In My Parents Prime
Remembering in my Parents’ Prime
========================
Ah! This snowy still night, at bedtime;
Reminds me of the picnic pictures,
I as a boy would imagine,
Dad and mom must have had a great time
In icy Gulmarg.
Raising her veil, slightly smiling and awfully shy,
A classic Kashmiri countrywoman.
He as a sixties-seventies Bollywood actor,
Clean-shaven, twirled his mustaches,
Dresses in a long woolen coat and tie.
And I in her lap with a scowly face
Seeing at the photographer,
With my finger in my mouth
And, belly half-naked.
