Safekeeping

With infant child at her breast

She softly whispers a lullaby -

The room clothed in

Darkness, save for a

Single bar of moonlight

That spills through the

Window.

The hope of the future is

Momentarily held within

Protective arms –

In this gift

Of a child -  

Who has declared

His love unconditionally

With infant child at her breast. If it's not the baby fighting for it then.....
But there you go, the beauty of real womanhood....

I feel this one deep into my heart, I felt it when I first became a father and held my baby girl in my arms, I felt it again at each stage of my daughters lives, I felt it again as each grandchild was placed into my arms for the first time and I feel it now reading your loving poem.

Yes indeed, the gift of a new life is to get to hold the future of the world... it is momentous and moving. Very icon-like, Madonna and Child. I love the form you have chosen for this, Dawn. Kate xx

You've penned a wonderfully loving poem of inner loyalty to the offspring. Only a mother can know such, and men wonders how the connection is so difficult. Oustanding writing! - Bill

Your thoughts reflect the unconditional love of a mother who within the protective arms and the state of mind finds her moments filled with joy and hope and yet understanding...children are the gifts of life and the future of the world....they breath life and give their unconditional love also...for they are the future of the World..


truly nice thoughtful poem, Dawn...


enjoyed, Art Sun...
