I breathe love <br />into the smocking of my winceyette nightie, <br />as I suck my beloved thumb off to sleep. <br /> <br />I breathe love <br />into the button in my daughter's wet belly, <br />as I hold her slippery fresh from the bath. <br /> <br />I breathe love <br />into the pheromones from my darling's soft neck <br />as I melt into him like hot butter. <br /> <br />I breathe love <br />into the space twixt the in and the out <br />as I buzz in the bliss of meditation.<br /><br />Alison Cassidy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-breathe-love/
