The warm pretty precious nuzzling orb mewling at my nipple One ample breast exposed bearing life to yon wimpering child. cloak over my head, over my shoulders engulfing woman and newborn. I am the wetnurse your mama's health is failing she is thankful not jealous she wisely knows I will cherish that which will soon be what she will never have in this life. Although, there will be love and protection through this winter; that waits upon her lover spring coming back with arms full of clouds, showers, sunshine and flowers, eroding away all the winter pain. Lillies for my sister's grave. songs to send her home with peace for no more will her child be alone agaianst sisters bossum there beats a heart, that knows what must be done, the thing that keeps a family bound as one.

Another time and another way of perpetuating a race. When we love those of our own and how we are willing to make sure others know.
