Baby Steps Out

..............Baby Steps Out.. ..........There's a waiting world .......Doctors nurses eager staff ......A doting father, mother in pain .....It is said that we chose our birth ....An act of free will, desired destiny ....The paths are all charted by our will ....This birthday I decided to recall..loll ......A memory jog, back to time of birth .........An unborn peeping into his future ..............The little steps on roads ahead .................Unfolding destiny milestones .....................Cherished moments in wait .....................Some vivid some smudged .....................Hand drawn on masterprint ..................Paths to travel people to meet ................The resting places n thirst stops ...............Careful leaps on stepping stones ...........The journeys that were yet to unfold .........All vivid in storehouse before take-off .....In the sojourn I was told: Precious is birth ...In baby steps or our giant strides a purpose .The joys or sufferings are like passing screens There is an axis a polestar guiding & connecting A constant the unchanging in all that is changing Distracted get our senses by colors cacophonies .Not difficult to lose the picture in such a journey ...Precious is birth- holds many a promise....es .... ......like many seeds...finding ground.. ..yes !! .........pods germinate ..stored... ..loved .. ...............friends near far ...unmet :) ......................thank you.....<3..... .................................Fam ....frnds .........................................................for remembering .............................................................flowing wishes
