New Born

New Born	
By Frank Daub

Putting up the wash – Again
one wooden clothes pin gripped
tightly
in her lips. On toe-tips; blonde hair wind-whipped
dangling in her eyes.
The sun an apricot surprise
on the back of her legs.
All busy hanging clothes
and 
Watching in the yard to see the baby lulling in the doze
	Of May.
My perennial loving Guard.
