BIRTH

Painful summer.
No carefree breeze
to end the plight
of restless nights.

Twilight captures time
until it is as gradual
as a lake stilled by
absent wind.

Persevering
with things made
and gifts given.
readying the room.

A fan stirs the mobile
and a gentle song
plays a welcoming
refrain.

First born calls
and she is broken.
