I liked this poem about new babies...


I took off my watch
when labor began.
For weeks there was only
time of cries and breezes
only the time of iris bloom.

The day was spring
and so was the hour.
The minute was milk
and the feeling.

Days turned over
and over, like a chorus
of lull, hush, and swaddle.
Pins fastening,
unfastening and slow
closing of fontanels.

I was in love with fists
and knuckles.
It was surrender
as total as a country
under white flags
taken over by
legions of peace.

~Joan Logghe
