Charmane Bellen Poet Free verse

Today, I Live

Today,
    I have my first breathe.
    I have my first touch
             of the warm embrace.
    I have my first taste
             of my mother's milk.
    I have my first tears
             the cry of innocence.
    I have my first dance
             in my father's arms.

Today,
     sweet kisses greeted me.
     gentle hands touches me.
