Warm wind frames dark eyes and hair.. Not cool like mother, blued eyed and fair...
Blowing in on a wintery day... Everything changing as I watch you play... In your crib, my beautiful storm... Filled with a promise not yet born...
You cry for me in the dead of night... I feed your hunger, I hold you tight... Trying to calm another storm... As one more piece of my heart is torn...
A mothers' breast will fill your need... Beautiful storm, be still I plead!...
never been a parent but I live with kids...like a hurricane of love...nice write....elo..

Hi leigh
Although this isn't a sonnet, it does actually have a sonnet-like air about it as regards style and content...
It is clear from the narrative that you are a splendid mother.
A fine write.
