Valentine Goodie, Day #5: Baby Love


















MOTHER'S SONG


it's quiet in the house so quiet
outside the snowstorm wails
the dogs curl up noses under their tails
my little son sleeps on his back
his mouth open
his belly rises and falls
breathing
is it strange if I cry for joy

~ 19th century Inuit song ~
