Capsulated by this alliegance of ours'
the umbilical gesture is one,
to hold on to for always as guidance.

this poem's started with a word that doesn't just get boxed in pregnancy, but becomes encased as your last two lines extendably. nice subtle flow like years of a lives with major transitions between each other, involved to not be over with effect...
never for a wit's end to feel drained by a need of such dependency, but with thought and care that can pass on more than a hint for life ~
titled it rightly from sweetened growth or nicest maturest enrichment tied,
called Carolyn
