EVEN PAST FIFTY

Written byShantha Shelke

Shanta Shelke Profile

She’s past fifty;yet she’s still

a little girl at heart,

for whom the house is a doll’s house,

and running the householda childhood game.

Catastrophes to herare still like the evil spirits

in children’s stories

A flower crumpled in a fist,

rises again, smiles, or sings to herself,though hers is not a musical voice.

noted the hair fast becoming white,

The hollowness of the frothrising above the stream of her

life
