The Bella Girl
And we wait for you. Light.
But I have known you
for a decade.
We walk together. Every lane.
Like new friends,
shy
and nervous.
And as you watched
Me,
grow up.
We made plans.
You’ll be the baby.
Oh flower,
Sweetness.
And I will be
The Momma,
oh kisses momma.
You are a Christmas
Babe,
With a daddy’s
birthday
and a mother’s
eyelashes.
And your heart
-is for the whole world.
You are the Bella girl.
And you wait for us,
a brand new
Autumn.
A big lovely,
A big new
A beautiful new
You.
