A Mother's Torture
The horrific experience of cutting baby finger nails
Rated:
E
by
Avg Rating: (11)
With a sigh, I see long scratches,
Knowing what I must do.
I gather up the clippers,
Praying he won't move.

Shuddering, I take a finger,
With the sharp edge placed...so;
Squeezing, I snip his little nail,
And wail, "Nine more to go!"
