Lullaby

mom 
holding
baby close
giving him warmth
sings a soft sweet lullaby soothing him
baby stretches tiny mouth opens yawning
pulling at ears
rubbing eyes
slowly 
sleeps

Dear Ani, such a lovely tender moment captured in your breathtaking imagery. I especially love the alliteration and the soothing "s" sounds of this line; "sings a soft sweet lullaby soothing him" - splendid! Your golden pen always shines, my inspiring friend. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

I thought you were going to become friends and read my happy poems. But now I'll post even dark ones like the one I wrote for Silent One. ~~
