Day Five "Nap"

The past few days ideas have just flowed and coming up with a poem has not been hard. Not so today. I spent way to much time coming up with this and it still doesn't have a title:

Brotherhood
Jovial kinship
In him there is safety and support
The most powerful ally
The most trusted friend
My brother

Then, my dear friend, Jared, sent me a text photo of him taking a Sunday afternoon snooze with his beautiful nephew, Derek. With his permission I have posted it and here is the poem it inspired:

Nap

Quiet, Precious, Still
The most peaceful moment in life
To hold a child against your breast
To smell their sweet fragrance
To watch them sleep
Then slip into slumber yourself
