Nefretiti Morant Poet Blank verse

First Time Mom

First time Mom


Staring down into
Eyes liquid-y 
Full of innocence and wonder

Intoxicated by your New life smell
Sleepless nights resulting from your 
New life energy
Proud momma
So blessed
God proven
U evolved in my womb
camouflaged to my heart

Bringing u home
To freshly painted walls
Caribbean blue
I'm Melted into humility

All I'd sacrifice for u
Floors danced late nights
Swapped for sleepless night naps
Endured thoughtlessly for you

Anticipating your every breath 
Noble prize or concurring mountain heights 
Dwarfed by Motherhood's badge 
sewn on my heart with thick 
blood line thread 
Around soul core edge
Selfless awe inspired love
