Poem!

Etcetera (for Ellis)

You reflect me
And the woman I love,
It makes me smile.

We urge you
To stay
Breathe
Sleep
Feed
Etc

Your feet are too small
For footprints.

Our heads are too full
Of you to not feel
Your little weight.

Etcetera is a better word
Than others I might use.

We are yours if you want us.

When you don’t need us
Let us down gently
Without the need
For lies and etc.
