easy to feel these words!
__ Christina, "holding him close" is a clear discovery of comfort that can be found and felt in any frightful dilemma; your verse… so well pictured that thought. _m
storm's frenzy a thief of this night peace bloomed daffodils
This gets all my feels as a parent. Those tantrum years are long gone for me, but I recognized it all as I read your poem. Kudos.
Beautiful and so relatable.
