Nine Months- for you..

This little person thou hath create
So totally reliant on you
Will soon see your face
Will know your scent
Will love you
Will memorize the contours of your image
Clasp your finger tight
Cry at night
To be with you and only you
Till comfort again is restored

This little person you did create
Exists of nothing more wondrous
Oh joy what you are capable of
What nature can do
Away from prying eyes
So pure
Untainted by life
So tiny
Unable to fill the smallest cotton
Whether sky blue or pink
Whether the whitest white
No love greater
Will you know

This little person you did create
Will someday speak your name
Will look a little
Maybe a lot
Like you
Remind you of the way you were
Of your lover
Of your spouse
Of their ways
A look
Better days
Brought together as you were
For the creation
Of life

This little person you did create
A blank canvas
As you expand
Woman
Run your hand
Over your stomach
Trace your hand
Over theirs
As they push left to right
Against the walls of security
Ready now to see light
Ready to view the world
As you do

Laugh oh sweet one
Laugh oh gentle one
Watch the rise and fall
Sing
For someday soon
You will hold
Will kiss
Oh curious emotion
Those tear filled eyes
Clear my vision
For now I need see

So onto you
A gift
So precious
Now you have
This little person
thou did create
You are mother
You are father
You
Are born again
