Little Baby 10 Days Old

dedicated to my niece, Shruthi

Little baby 10 days old
You squirm around in my lap
Frown and smile without reason
Pee and poo without warning

Little baby 10 days old
Your feet are soft like petals
The grandmothers and aunts
Hover around you

Little baby 10 days old
You fall asleep so easily
Your cries silenced
In your peaceful state

Little baby 10 days old
You know nothing at all
And your family
Loves you so much
