Breast Feeding

I breast fed because
it was more nourishing for my baby
compared too bottle feeding

It was emotionally satisfying for me and my babies
we formed a closeness that bottle feeding
can't accomplished

While breasting I felt a love like no other
different from agape love, I love because it is the right thing to do
it differs from romantic love coupled with agape, love hot with passion

The love from breasting differs
I love my children equally
the one I breast feed until age one

Breast-feed mothers share a bond 
with their babies non-breast feed moms 
can't express
