Milk

Milk, warm thick fatty
nourishment like heaven's
breath, the fuel of life
that radiates and sparks
this new delight.

This sensation of life,
liquid breath, butter sun
love from my mother, what
delights await these sky-blue
eyes and tiny nostrils
in this world of swirling
scents and sensations, lights
like delightful milk,
warm thick fatty nourishment
like heaven's breath,
liquid breath, butter sun
love from my mother.
