Childbirth-The Mystery

hurray!
hurray!
hurray!,
the sound of 
merriment 
engulfs the 
air,
sooner is 
the day of 
approach,
with all in 
unison 
accepting 
the cause,
portraying 
the gift of 
perseverance,
as the pace 
of time 
evokes.

The night 
soon fades,
erupting the 
morning feel,
then the cry 
of joy sets 
in,
showing the 
mystery of 
child 
bearing.

For she 
discovers 
pleasure in 
the 
upliftment 
of hope,
her joy 
comes 
through the 
overwhelming 
brightness 
of the day,
independently 
she shakes 
of despair 
allowing 
peace x-ray 
her 
thoughts.

Alas!she 
sighs,
finding a 
resting 
place 
to lay her 
treasure,
of 
cause,with a 
smile the 
offspring 
tells of his 
ordeal,
reflecting 
the passion 
behind his 
forebearing.

Once again 
she is 
energized,
at the sight 
of her child,
she beams 
radiantly,
indeed her 
prerogative 
power gives 
rise to her 
pre-installed 
hope.
