The Wonder Of Birth

An emotional experience for a mother,

An overwhelming experience for father,

Birth of a child from the womb, beginning of,

Relationship, love, and lust coming together

In a union of bodies, to sow the seeds,

In the creation of a new life, a newborn,

As it grows in the womb of the woman,

The glowing face reflects a mother's happiness.

The man shares the joy of becoming a father.

They wait for the time to pass, to term.

Waiting for that gentle kick, that nudge.

The beginning of her new born's impatience.

To see the world, hold mother's hand, ride

Piggyback on father, she too is impatient,

To see and hold her newborn baby.

Waiting for final moments of conception,

Out comes the newborn, gently guided.

By mother's soft hands, which is covered by fathers gentler hands, together holding,

His tiny feet, to guide him out of the womb.

That awaits his footsteps into this world.
