Untitled
You have eyes that fly me to the moon
Silver sonnets slip from licorice lips
Making maroon heart do somersault
Flips my DNA to create a new soul
In my womb as you swoon
I feel the formation of life
It feels like butterflies climbing
From cocoon wing a blueberry bloom
As the umbilical cord grows
I can feel this new soul
Clinging to my navel for life
Inside me a sea of red
For baby to be fed
And my tears and fuchsia fears
Melting ambitions creating nutrition
For birthing body is on auto pilot
Despite being an emotional wreck
I am blessed Mother Nature is
Devinely inspired to do her best work
So I can relax and enjoy the birth
