This is What Love Feels Like
Laying down
for a nap
with my daughter
curled up with
my belly
to her back
my arms
around her
little almost
three year old
body
little feet
resting on
my thighs
rhythmic
breathing
deeply
together
we sleep
sacred
holy
complete
this
is
what
love
feels
like.

Oh thank you, Dear Robyn. You make my heart smile! Yes, focusing on all the gems right now! that is for sure. i have so loved reading your poetry and you have inspired me — to write more and to share more of the old ones. I’ve been writing since I was in third grade.
