Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures of babiesI look so stern
Because I'm close to the heart
Here in my mothers arms
I hold on
Such a serious look
I do impart
Yet I too do hold on
I hold on     <jelsr>

Look That's Stern I Hold On

I look so stern
Because I'm close to the heart
Here in my mothers arms
I hold on
Such a serious look
I do impart
Yet I too do hold on
I hold on
Cheek to breast
Ear to heart
I listen as I clench and hold
I hold on
A mother's love
Never ends as long as she holds
Spirit to flesh
Flesh to flesh
Nurturing comes
From the tender fingers, hands and arms
The body and soul of mother
I hold...
I hold on
