letting love drain out of me

Last week he cried & cried.
I drew him in close to my belly & my breast and sleep over took him.

Love over took me.

This week, after he finished his bottle, he picked himself up, and nestled his head in my shoulder. Asleep, fast & purring.

And I cried, letting love drain out of me.

I was missing you and so I read some of your poetry.

I had the feeling that you are falling in love with a new place and I think I was right. I love you, Kate McK and I can't wait to see you.
