I eat my buckwheat pancakes
in silence

first day of college
longing for my parents
to hold on to me
~~~~~
first day of teaching
staring at blank faces
thinking- what next?
~~~~~
first day of preschool
my son’s backpack
weighs more him
——–
first day of school
my daughter stands defiant
refusing to sit
