Analysis of Smooth Approach

Ian Sawicki

Time is mine! All those months
that stretched my curves with love.
Heavy with wisdom, symbolism,
this animal instinct is supreme.
Offered with beauty; grace,
the blood of my blood is for life.
Take the swelling cry of birth,
capture its breath and rejoice.
This is the frozen; chiselled way
of family - the smooth approach.
