Happy Mothers' Day
From the sweet lips of
the mouth of the Universe
flies a vow soft as the drone
of butterfly chants floating
through time and space
sun the promise to answer
the circling wish of women
filling with infant velvet the
voided crook of empty arms
opening the fist of a wanting heart
as each mother falls headlong
filled forever
"the circling wish of women" is such a powerful line!

now that is a line that I did actually think about - delighted you enjoyed:)
DeleteAmazing that you could use the same wordsd in 3 diffeerent poems that all expressed a strong sentiment. a good job!
ReplyDeleteMarian - Honestly I don't know where these come from - the wordle words obviously provide enough of a prod to unleash some unconscious process - I often say that I feel like the transcriber more than the writer. Thank you so very very much.
Delete"filling with infant velvet the voided crook of empty arms" amazing!
ReplyDeleteI liked that line myself - I am so happy that you enjoyed it as well. There is nothing quite like the feel of a baby in one's arms.
