as we fall asleep















in the dark
nose to nose
like Inuit throat singers
your chubby body wraps tightly round my arm
your delicate hands rest lovingly on my wrist
tiny puffs of your sweet milky breath hit my face like kisses
and i think to myself
this is it
this is where i belong

Even though I am the mother, I still think that this is absolutely wonderful. It allows me to be there with you feeling my granddaughter sleeping.
Well done!!!!!!!!!!! Mom
