A few days after my Prince was born, and my life was changed forever.
This week is pretty jam-packed busy for me. We’ve got cousins visiting from Wales, so all the family is together most the week. That’s ten children, three sets of parents and a grandmother or two. Totally fun!
As I don’t have time to write I thought I’d just share a poem I wrote recently in my Open University ‘Creative Writing’ course.
To My Son
I thought I knew love:How it sparks, ignites, alights
consumes the mettle of your soul
till vaporous you float,
like a firefly drunk on nectar.
I thought I knew what loving meant:
To give yourself entire,
tsunami of selfless devotion
rising high, empowered
by a deeper force within.
But when you held me in your heart the day we met
I knew nothing.
I was breathless, drowning in unknown waters.
Then you caught me, filled me, taught me:
Incomprehensible mother-love.
