Little eager mouth
eyes tipped upward, demanding
hand gripping my breast
Moment of focus
Anxiousness turns to relief
Finally begins
Everything I have
I give, this sweet baby the
template of my joy
Ritual ends with
flushed cheeks and audible sigh
heavy-lidded bliss
While Constructing

This is amazing. It's the most evocative description of breast-feeding that I think I've ever read.
