The Wonder of Birth

A million bright thoughts, Explode in your brain. They thunder and crash, Falling like rain. Your mind's full of wonder, All thoughts are astray. Though you don't realize You were born today. Sights, sound and smell Are kindled with pain. At that one moment Inside of your brain; The knowledge of all Is what you have got. As awareness set in It's quickly lost. But, at that one moment You're the great on earth! You are the apex Of what man is worth. Of all the great things In this universe. None can compare with the Wonder of Birth!
