#breast-feeding
Two protruding supple *******
on much toned down
lactating, tender *******
swollen, in anticipation
of thirst, awaiting open mouthed,
---are gently pushed in between
pursed, eager, fumbling lips,
of the newborn, who in no way knows,
what happens, in this world of strangers.
When milk in one is fully drained, as if by prompt,
it's the turn of the other full one, he knows.
Each one is avariciously taken in
by saliva dripping cute baby lips,
instinctively discerns it as "Mama dear"
even without opening tired eyes
that fear the rushing, hurting light.
Motherly warmth, the distinct scent,his nose smells first
the bonding felt, when held close to her warm *******
incessant flow of lukewarm milk of love;
aren't these enough to make her presence felt
in the baby's nascent mind, that craves for a mom?
This is the precise moment, of the 'new born mother'
Mother, the flowing milk of life, protector, care giver.
As if in a dream just began to unfold,
the new born, like a bloom disarmingly smiles!
Closing her eyes as if to join in the baby's dream,
the mother suckles the infant in self oblivion.
The meaning of the pride written on her face
in hues of crimson, only a mother could fully discern.
