Blessed with Children[1]
Insects in flight,
Well you appear.
It is all right
To teem with children dear.
Insects in flight,
How sound your wings!
It is all right
To have children in strings.
Insects in flight,
You feel so warm.
It is all right
To have children in swarm.
[1]The poet wished the family to be blessed with as many children as a swarm of insects.
