Poem

She stares lost, into the distance
far removed from the sounds of life.
Her book, she ignores, as she ponders
soft are her eyes as memories surface.

She starts as her hand hits the keys
then plays a few notes in remembrance.
Mundanely trying to fill up her time 
she waits, watching, her mind still lost.

Her heart is yearning for his presence
without him, she feels, oh so incomplete.
Soon now he should be returning home
she prays he will share her joyful news.

A small flutter inside her womb
signifies the start of new life.
Will he be happy or angry with her,
although this birth was not planned.

She knows he wanted to wait a bit
get a promotion or two at his work.
Yet the fates have decreed otherwise.
She hears the door and his footsteps.

He calls out her name as he enters
and pulls her into a loving embrace.
She stiffens in his arms, feeling scared,
then stammers to him, her life changing news

He goes as still as death itself, shocked,
walks away from her to pour a stiff drink. 
Then suddenly it hits him, they will be parents,
joyfully he holds her, asking when in excitement. 

About seven months time she softly whispers.
Her joy set alight with love for him and her unborn child. 
A boy, she hopes, just like his handsome father
and they celebrate together their happiness.
