I Got Mothered Today
I Got Mothered Today
I got MOTHERED today.....
My name was first
a scream
fire engine loud mouth
sated only by
sweet drops of milk.
My name was then
MMMMM
chubby wet fingers
reaching for my face.
My name was then
MAMA
as unsteady
wobbly legs
ran to me
as I returned through the door.
My name was then
MOMMY
as a bloody
elbow was cleaned
of sand and salty tears.
My name today was
MOTHER!
as sea blue eyes
rolled in my direction
and you ran off with a quick wave.
I got MOTHERED today
and it was still beautiful
