Rock a Bye

Still waters
void of sound
traced back in tranquility
Hush.

Rock a bye

Flying horses
calm sensory perception
sea of embryonic fluids
anoint thee
hush.

Rock a bye

Nutrients flow
into ocular vision
invitation answered,
unintentionally
Hush

Rock a bye

sweet invocation
plays a vibration
held in the tissues
still forming salutations
Hush

Rock a bye.

Birth canal
retaliation
head strong.
hush

Rock a bye

Cries rock a void
Breath fills the silence
Creation identified.
Birth.

What an interesting idea -- a poem leading up to a birth. You writing is definite and striking.

This is beautiful.I like the sway of the rhythm, a soothing lullaby to the many layers of messages in this piece. Great messsages. Keep writing.

Very different from other poems of yours I have read...almost graphic in the birth process, but I love the repitition of Rock a bye

This does lullaby he reader. You have done a great job at creating a cadence that allowed for the reader to get lost and gently released at the end. Great write.
