Five Fat Petals

Paisley at my bosom, soft head tadpoles
           Wrapped dependent, rest in trust cherubic
           Teeth buds plump palms grip my knee, betrothal
           Chatter germinates language sporadic
  
          
           Gurgled contentment, vowel upswings strangle
           Trance silence slumps little limbs from frantic
           Pure rapture adoration fresh angle
           Rock A Baby slobbered face romantic


          Blossomed brood, clan, cluster, fan club gaggle
          Toddle boldly confident beyond skill
          Awe for mundane magnifies appraisal 
          Frustration annulled, infantile stun still

        
          Sibling envy love wound rigid, rough rope
          Petals inseperable open with hope




           27th January
           Childish desires
