An Afghan woman's memory of growing up

War, horror, and hate cannot always take away the good things in you memory.

Amplify’d from www.awwproject.org

My Village

The sound of cocks wakes me up

The sun shines fresh.

Before washing my face

I water the plants

Then

I go say good morning to the cows

And milk them.

I make the tea

I take my dirty clothes

To wash.

After that I relax

On the ground under the pear tree

And nap.

There is nothing new.

Tomorrow it is the same.
