A to Z Challenge

For the A-Z challenge, we decided to post a new and original poem every day. Today, Regina has the letter "T".



Two a.m.

Silence broken only

as the rocker hits

the wood floor.

Mother, child

two a.m.

time to find

peace in violence.

Remnants of war waged,

smell of breast milk,

warmth against my chest.

Two hearts

beating,

breaths synchronized in

heat and sweat.

Here in exhaustion,

in the trenches of motherhood,

you will find

me.

It's World Book Night!

Juliet is a giver and will be handing out copies of 

Tina Fey's "Bossypants"

To COPE Parents from Kingsley School
