Baby Bathes Rinsing, washing Baby bathes Babbling fond incoherencies Startled, stops Eyes soap stung Poised at the Brink of crying Then pain To pleasure yields Splash kaplash Stacato arms ecstatic Conducting the symphony Of bubbles forming Now, snatched to Loving mother's arms To toweling--mid symphony |

The symphonic orchestra that the cute 'lil baby is conducting must be the playing the most harmonious melody ever. Not to mention, the wettest... _,,,^.^,,,_ |

Joe, I felt the splash and heard the gurgle...what more could I ask of in a poem. Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Thank you all for your kind comments. I did the sketch of my grandson,Nicky at an age a few years older than the baby I had in mind in the poem, but I thought it still added to the overall idea. It's a joyful sight to see a baby enjoying its first baths. Cheers to all, Joe Lamando |
