A baby
A life forms within me
My womb opens itself
A tiny life within me
Depending on me for the very air it breathes
I lay my hands upon my tummy
Though deep inside
I feel my little being
Our hearts beat together
Our blood flows together
No longer am I just a woman
I shall now be a mother
A woman of virtue and gentleness
I will take care of myself
For there is a tiny one inside of me
That anticipates my touch
