Baby And The Breast Poem by Aftab Alam

Another lovely poem Aftab. The time spent as a baby on the most important time.

Beautiful poem...good bond between mother and baby..Loved reading it.

OK. i just read the comment i left below this one and i see i DID make a mistake! in the following: ...in the u.s.a. the is/was a candy bar called Baby Ruth....i meant to write THERE is/was.... i see poemhunter did not keep the quotation marks i used in my first comment....too bad. AND now that i have read my comment about the last two lines, i feel you mean that the baby who did not get breast fed is telling its mother that it is ok. he or she (the baby) will still always be the mother's child, and the mother will always be the child's mother. and the author and/or the baby is saying that mothers are wonderful. well done. bri

i have questions about these parts of the poem: (i liked your bio and might not go to as much trouble as i am going to here if i hadn't read about your interest in suggestions about your use of english) didn’t cared: try didn't care ; a wavy: i do not know what a wavy is unless it is a term used in your area to describe a breast which swings something like a wave (such as a wave of water) ; all piled: what does this mean? ; If ye will not care to me, who will care you for infirmity: i suggest writing if ye will not care FOR ME....and who will care for you in your infirmity (old age) or when you are old; baby Ruth’: what does this mean? ....in the u.s.a. the is/was a candy bar called Baby Ruth (maybe named for the very famous american baseball player Babe Ruth) ; Should we called a wild? : the whole part in which you use the word wild is not well understood by me. do you care to explain? and, depending on what you mean by should we called a wild? , i would write it as should we be called a wild? or should we call he/she/it a wild? in the next two lines: Worry not, thy youth is youth forever and ye are the mother Is there anything on earth more beautiful than a mother? i'm not sure i know what you are saying because, to ME, thy youth is youth forever could mean two things. it could mean your [the mother's] young physical appearance and/or emotional condition will remain young forever....OR.... your baby/child will be your baby/child forever. ALSO, i thought the last two lines got away from the theme of breastfeeding, and therefor they seemed out of place to me. i like the poem, but of course i would probably like it more if i understood it better. i wonder if Indian readers have an easier time understanding it. thanks for sharing. if you have specific questions about english usage...spelling, verb tenses, idioms, grammar, etc. feel free to ask...........but i am NOT an EXPERT and make mistakes at times even though i have spoken english for 60 years. and i don't know all the words.

Wow this is a very lovely poem. Nothing can compare with the love that is shown between mother and baby. When time to be fed whether its by breast or bottle there still is a special bond that develops. I truly enjoyed this one. Well said Aftab.

good write about mother and baby. your last line says it all.
