HALF-DAY'S DELIGHT
My
son at nine who fasts half-days
says
I should say how
everything tastes special
when we break the fast.
"What
a good idea!" I say. So here it is,
on his young recommendation, first
taste of fasting in his
seasonal lifetime, already
seeing so much in the finest
details, knowing it all
comes from Allah--
the
tang of apple or melted cheese in a tortilla
a special delight after
not eating even only
half a day!
