Fetal Movement




~~~

I toss the pillows
The bed cover creases
Tossing and turning
Agitated discomfort


The baby in the womb
Lay protected
Kicks. Hard
The fetal movement


Sends ripples through and through
The heart and soul
The fetal kick
I toss


The creases eases
The womb, the liquid swirling
Contractions. Movement.
The quiet groan of an unborn child
