What amount of toothpaste should I take (Sonnet 53)


What amount of toothpaste should I take
on the brush I do not know till today. In winter
Exactly when instead of the light chadar
should I pull out the warm blanket?

Picking up the ringing telephone from the rack
how loud to say ‘Hello’? What time I do require
 to boil an egg? What amount of water
should I pour to each tub of plants?

Many such little things I required to know anyway,
I do not know. How to maintain a diary? Although  
I owned the habit of writing a poetry every day.
what costs a good pen to write well I do not know.
I do not know how many times in a single day
should I tell you in words how much do I love you.
