Shoba has a shop next to the bridge,
where her one-year-old son is adored by all comers,
with smiling neighbors vying for a turn to hold him.

Tomorrow is the first day of Teej, the woman’s festival in Nepal;
today was Children’s Day and the students at the Niharika school had an exhibition of dance;
a fantastic time was had by all.

Quartet in a doorway
Balaju Bypass, Kathmandu, 2002
To enter my friends apartment building, one goes through a long dark tunnel. On this wintery day, these four children were just inside the doorway, watching the world outside. One of them is eating chow-chow [ramen] straight from the bag—a popular snack.

I believe the corrugated metal behind Sumitra is a tiny booth that sells wristwatches; closed and locked for the day.
