Chuther

When our children who are grown 

and on their own

begin to fight

or blame each other

for some minor or major oversight

there's nothing we can do.

We remember their childhood sweetness,

how they were born and how we struggled

to make them norm.

It is a story known to us alone

but in our hearts we can't help crying

when they abandon "chuther" 

and choose to walk alone.
