Umbrella
The birth of beautiful, beloved babes
Blazing love burning in mothers' heart
Flaming hot as sun above or hell below
Fierce, piercing passionate obsession
All engulfing, all consuming
Total control of every cell & vessel
And every second of every hour
Arouses feelings unknown before this arrival
Crazy, out of control love without caution
Now uncaring of limited sleep, or any
Nor thoughts of self entertained, none
Only for this magnificent miracle
She is all mine !!
How do I protect her in my absence
When my absence is required
Though unhappily entrusting in others care
An idea out of desperation occurs
Out of absolute addiction to this angel
An UMBRELLA of love !!
Whose size would be situational
And may require sudden adjustments
According to lifes' problems & plagues
Small like a parasol at first
In growing years & older years
Gigantic protection may be sought
Miles wide & long & deep, or more
Glowing fiery, flaming, crimson red
Shield your eyes or you may go blind
Intensity to which nothing compares
Big, bold, blessed, bountiful, beaming
No barriers or obstacles or boundaries
No prevention of protection from harm
Shield & encase her forever & ever
With an umbrella of love from mother
An unlimited, lifetime guarantee
For this beautiful, beloved babe
She is all mine !!
