First

Still and silent
my foetus grew
in the warmth of your womb
my first home

lean and trembling
my lips drained
the providence of your breast
my first meal

weakly and wobbly
my feet tramped
the strength of your lap
my first journey

nervous and unrefined
my wail blended
the notes of your lullaby
my first song
