Sequence- Haiku/Senryu
 
  
parent’s day
the toddler asks his mom
to dye her hair
 
quibbling
he picks up the cigarette
half done from the road
 
 
peering down the balcony
she sees a panty
settled on a trouser
 
second-hand furniture mart –
owner's wife locks something
in a cupboards
 
early  evening –
mood being a bit loose
he asks for a screwdriver
 
the tall man mumbles –
in a  crowded bus,
I can buy her a shampoo
 
another mom biting her nails
kids chat and laughing
toddlers  results today
