Baby blues see
searching seeking
roving room for mother’s eyes.
Baby blues
‘tween flop-eyed wand’rings
stare steadfastly into brown.
Baby blues close
shuffling snoozing
dreaming milkmade happy times.
Baby blues
what are you thinking?
closed-lid dancing; furrowed frown.
Baby blues
so deep and changing
knowing sagely I love you.

How sweet. If put to music this could be a lullaby too. Beautiful, Chelsea.

This feels like you should be able to sing it or something, but the syllables per line makes me think maybe not. I dunno – it’s so bouncy!
