un-severed,
are the
embolic strands
of liquidity
from
mother’s womb,
held to breast
heartbeats
unison

Once again, there is power in every word chosen. I love the images borne on every word. It is as if you make each word take flight in a picture. You are a word painter and I love that about this.

cushioning emphasis
congratulations on an encompassing grasp
the first stanza had such a happiness of presence, and the undifficult continuance with embraceable value of your next ones. and then even the important rhythm of maternal calming for life, interfolding the purported harmony that can be conditioned to develop outside of cradle even...
lovely I'm glad it was judged as such,
babies are my subject -
So tenderly expressive and wonderful... x Thanks ever so much for sharing and many blessings to you too. Lavender Butterfly.

Sweet
Written with motherly love, wonderful and best of luck in the contest.

Excellence in verse. Reminds me of Simone and Garfunkle's "Mother and Child Reunion". That song and your lyrical verse as well remind us of the motion ties with her from the event at birth ,emotional lifetime ties to her,and the event of reunion at death too."That mother and child reunion is only a motion away"
