Birth of a Mother
I have witnessed a beautiful sunrise
Sat in awe of an exquisite set
Tasted wine from the greatest vineyards
A few moments I won't forget
Crystal clear blue oceans
Caressed my gingerbread skin
Shimmery coconut lotions
Aroma, enhanced by gentle winds
Enjoyed the hustle of city life
A pretty penny in my pocket
Felt love and security of being a wife
But you can bet that I can top it
Like two parallel pink lines
The birth of a doting mother
The love of two, intertwined
Creating yet another
The sensation of our creation
Jostling about inside my belly
A speck from penetration
A touch of you and piece of me
Laying on a twin size bed
Needles and nurses, in and out
The doctor sees a head
Perfection without a doubt
Trembling arms cradle you
Eyes wide open, you study me
There is nothing more I want to do
No place I'd rather be
