Notes About The Poem

On Becoming An Aunt

sweet little one
so tiny
dear
and
precious
a sleeping beauty
a mother’s pride
in premium exclusivity
a ticking mystery
the single aunt’s enigma

Thanks for sharing this reality, poetically expressed. I'm an aunt to 10 wonderful kids of my 3 siblings, and I'm so blessed to be delighted with them. Thanks likewise for your comments. I appreciate them. God bless you.
