motherhood in haikuI.

Love-filled womb round ‘til

Waves of pain carried me to you 

A mother was born

II.

Sleep left and milk came

Shhh, sweet babe grows by morning

First steps away from me

III.

Feelings, yours and mine

Breathe through the growing pains

Mothering, the verb

IV.

Love you forever

Words whispered at bedtime dark

Treasured in the heart
