Game Irina Abaza (b. 1978)
We can't stop our gaze. The baby, the baby. This one plump and pink, curled toes half formed fingers, folds of fat elbows and knees.
The newborn at yesterday's baby naming, still had black hair, and a pinched newborn face, no eyebrows or lashes, skinny legs, tiny mouth.
We greeted her entrance into the world, the community: "Simun Tov, u'Mazel Tov." At kiddush she slept on her grandmother's lap.
(Carol Dorf)
