Life

Posted: 1st May 2005 by Jab in Poetry

Waiting patiently,

abruptly, calmly,

anxiously…

For a sound so pleasant,

so arousing to hear.

When you hear, this sound

so sweet,

with your crying eyes

you look up…

Looking scared and unaware;

innocent…

At the same time

charming and sweet;

beautiful.

As you take – touch

for the first time,

holding and smelling;

crying and thanking.

For you have just been blessed

with this beautiful baby.
