How Beautiful Is Pregnancy

(9/27/12) A man is so glad to know- that inside you His child grows. The most beautiful thing on this earth Is a woman giving birth. As her stomach starts to grow And her soft caressing hands begin to show You’ll see her face take on a radiating glow. She will see life in a different way As her motherly instincts come into play. her body which she had taken for granted before Is about to open a new door. This is the door to life and as you do the pushing pains From this moment on your life will change. And when you feel that child stretching Those walls of life You’ll know it was worth the pains and sacrifice. You may see its head and then its face Searching this unfamiliar place. Looking for the warmth that it knew When it was inside of you. It will take some time for the child to adjust But it’ll recall your gentle touch Now the first step comes into place When you look at each others face. An indefinable feeling that you can’t put into words But for nine months this child has heard. The beating of its mothers heart Had become as one And a new life had begun. Now you have become what GOD intended A mother of life - of hopes and dreams And all that is seen and unseen. Look deeply into that child s eyes And it will take you where you’ve Never been before - as it opens Up its souls door. This is what - “as a man”- I see And you can’t take that away from me. © L .
