3 a.m.

 
  
Caden woke up at 3 a.m.
He said, “Nice hair-cut Grammy”
Laid his head down on her belly
Had to lift his head to look her in the face
Make that sound again Grammy
The one you do with your belly.
When she couldn’t do that
He put his head on her chest
He was cradled in her arm pit
Lifted his head to look her in the face
I can hear your heart. He pulled himself away.
glump, glump glump, glump he said
Your heart won’t stop Grammy
Then laid his head back down to hear some more.
