Dear Chiyutai,
Suddenly you
are so big, my pet,
And don’t
want to be kissed –
In public and
in private.
Those
moments are now missed –
When you
plonked on my lap with your chubby bums
And ate up
my face with toothless gums.
You laid my long
hair on your eyelids
To shield
them from the light’s glow.
I don’t want
to tell you this –
But perhaps
you already know.
That I still
kiss you goodnight
When you are
sleeping tight.
