Beata Agustin Poet Nonet

Nursed To Nurture

Nursed*
nourished
nurtured well
November babe**
now fulfills Mom roles
nestled in love and care
n e v e r allowing grievous
n e g a t i v i t i e s to govern
news since indeed God reigns in the home.

*1 Thessalonians 2:7-8 KJV But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children: so being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.

Alliteration in Nonet form

**A blessed birthday to my dearest sister, Ading Ming...
Also dedicated to my November-born friends who are now devoted mothers: Loi, Salve, Iris, Ate Maan, Sis. Myrsa

Andrea Dietrich November 22, 2022 at 9:54 AM wow, this was done so well, Beata. Did you just miss getting it into the contest because it filled up fast? I will be doing a December contest but not sure yet what it will be. Hope to see your poetry in that one!
