This is beautiful Mo. I love this -
"... But you have called to the night
you have asked that she return the warmth to your belly
she lies, cold, naked and pocked, a wry smile curling her lips"
A wonderful image!

I liked this as well - very deep emotions here and very well penned. I think we each have felt the same currents of life as you have written it here. I look forward to more.
