Boiling Point

by Padmaja Iyengar-Paddy

The boiling milk
Spills all over the kitchen
More work for mother
With the latest arrival
And a jealous older one

I have only a son. This is just a flight of imagination to write a Tanka. I'm glad this one took you down the memory lane, Mr. Nair :-)

I remember my two daughters. The elder one was very jealous when the second arrived. Good days to remember. Thanks Padmaja-ji. What prompted you to write this?
