with corner of her saree
after an hour of hectic activity
as she waved bye to little Anita & school bag

until she returns safely in the evening...
PS: At one time the school was considerd the safest place for a child after the home- The recent incidents in Bangalore & elsewhere of school staff themselves becoming the cause of worry prompted me to write this poem.
