Two Mothers

Two eggs and a nest
A mother and her wings
Perching, silently on twig,
Watching

Too scared for rest
A mother on her knees
Crouching solemnly on couch,
Praying

Took years and a tears
A mother and offspring
Raising voices at each other,
Bonding

Two mothers and a love
The mommy and the hummingbird
Singing lullabies to little juniors,
Daily

Nests weaved with a beak,
Words sealed with a peck
One human, one not
Two mothers and, they love.
