Til the Time Was Right

Was a kindly lady Whose biological clock was ticking down Six times they tried IVF treatment To have there own child is their crown The fire of love still burns between them It is hard for them to understand Why their dearest wish isn't granted Holding ones baby in your hands. The face is slowly smiling As she faces another scan To say yea or nay that she's with child Smiling face but very wan. The radiologist puts gel on the bump Listens intently for the sound she wants to hear Turns the screen around , mothers heart jumps There on the screen is their child to be Deep down this sight, keeps my faith intact Moves my very soul from darkness to light Lord moves in mysterious ways Making them wait til the time was right.
