Baby, Song Baby Poem by Syed R Ahamed

Baby!

Cries of tears

You have come home

To mom like a good child

I knew you would come crying

When my breasts are oozing milk,

Its long since you went off my gut, off my being

A gasp that made you made me rich (or so I thought)

I carried you sometime to nobody's notice (or so I thought)

When you rolled off my hips, you were still mine (or so I thought)

Like every child born, you were a sweetly pain to bear

I was busy cooking food, I took you away from my chest

I thought I will give you milk after the food's cooked

Did you cry before you ran away? My deaf ears

were at that time searching for music

Where were you, all long, my baby?

I had embraced my barenness

Now you've come

Am leaking milk!
