Single Piece of Light
Life is our single piece of light between two eternal spheres of darkness.
Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita
Our reckless behavior brought
new life into being.
Family bonds were broken on that night,
never to be mended.
But still, there is joy in new beginnings.
I touch my inconvenient bulge and asks,
“Dear child, what will you do with this,
our single piece of light?”

This came to me while taking in some sunshine at a nearby park. Sometimes I miss my teen figure.

Family bonds may have been broken in the conception but it created a new family bond - mother and child - for you.
You clearly have warmer weather in Dallas this time of year than in England. I agree with LDF - cherish this time.
