In the lateness of the day
Tucked up in bed
Half warm, with toes and fingers freezing
My stone sinks
My working week is over
I only have energy for sleep.

The moon took out the sky

expecting full on crazy!

Cry baby

Watching ‘One Born Every Minute’
has made me decide that,
when the time comes,
(which is not (nowhere near) now
for those who may wonder)
I want a water birth.

My reasoning for this
has nothing to do with
the potential reduction
of pain or to create a
future Olympic swimming
champion but to save
the NHS money on
tissues and I can fill
the pool with my tears.

I’m not sure whether the
new little one or me
will be the bigger
cry baby.
