The Baby

The baby

Your posts of the baby
And the photos, oh the photos!
Engulfed me with joy

With the rescued infant
Swaddled in rainbow colours
And alive, so alive
Getting better every day

Joy is the emotion to feel
Unasked, unbridled
Inspired by you and your stories
Of love, and victories

All power to the Alexandrine
And your caring and sharing
Long may we all survive
To experience this daily lift
It is one of your gifts
Thank you and the baby
