__What? __ Poem by Aparna Chatterjee

<span style='font-family: times new roman; font-size: 14pt; color: black; font-weight: normal; '>What' s the<br />
First thing<br />
He does after<br />
Coming back<br />
Home? <br />
<br />
He searches<br />
For me...<br />
  <br />
Reminds me of<br />
Those days<br />
When I also<br />
Searched for my<br />
Mother after coming<br />
Back home but instead<br />
Got caretakers for free</span><br />
<br />
<span style='font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-weight: normal; '>(based on my memories of having a working mother, I always missed her) <br />
<br />
Here ' he' refers to my son when he comes back home from school, looking for me so that he can share his day' s news and views :) </span><br />
