The Life-changing Moment

Hanging indefinitely on the thread of time,

Was a moment to never forget,

When she first laid her eyes on him

she knew he was her’s forever.

Her eyes glistened with unshed tears,

Gently she pressed her moist lips on his forehead

And drew him close in a warm embrace.

Hours of pain were forgotten

In just a moment of recognition

As her entire world changed

So undefined, so unfettered a love,

As her surging emotions

Enveloped her newborn son.
