Miracles Do Happen

M iracle baby boy
I' m being called
R elief for my parents
A s I am growing and doing fine
C loser to entering the world
L ove is flowing like water
E verywhere in our home right now

B ut I am ready to leave this small space
A nd be held by my mommy and daddy
B y and by I will feel hugs and kisses
Y et another miracle I am from God above


Written for: Debbie Guzzi's  "Give Thanks" Contest
Received Honorable Mention

After years of trying and losing, after being told they would never have
a child of their own...A Miracle happened. 
We constantly give thanks for our little guy.

Dear Carol, Thank you for the warm welcome. I am definitely a newbie here, so it was wonderful to receive such kind words from you. I love your ACRO poem! It is so gentle! I love writing akrostic poems myself, but so far, I've only written them in Russian. I think you've inspired me to give it a try in English. :) Thank you again & wishing you all the inspiration in the world!))) Sincerely, Helen.
