Exegesis of a Poem

Morning opens her intimate heart to the poet
					ever faithful is she
					life the road you follow

her eggs of possibility palpably present
waiting only for your deepest feelings to pour out

						Now!
					climax spurs
				new fingers and toes
			your woof added to her warp
		you wear your role as new parent proudly
	earth’s future glows with yet another shimmering child
love the genetics that formulates beauty greater than the sum of parts


All of your children together the progeny of so many stars, she smiles too.
