Fragile
Marked 'Fragile, Handle with Care'
a preemie wrapped in tender affection
Tiny fingers, tiny toes; a wisp of a nose
in the midst of her pale pink complexion
Gentle and delicate her handlers will be
knowing one slip can be fatal
Should not every delivery be treated this way
~ pre, neo and post-natal
