Oh My Lady, Oh My Daughter

Holding your hand as you gave life, I wished I could bear the pains… Oh for the first time I looked in your eyes And felt my bravery down the drains! All my life I’d seemed to be too strong To tremble nor least inhabit a fear; But when I beheld your unthinkable agony, I lost my guards and shed than a tear. Right there where I knelt beside you, Many questions kept rushing my way: “Will I ever see my lady smile again? O, will her love for me last another day?” Then suddenly in a twinkle of an eye, I was awoken by the cry a one so tender; So glad my lady made it through at last… —Not alone, but with a beautiful daughter! Dedicated to: The wonders of GOD and the beauty of the Feminine
