Trembles and Thrills

Thoughts stir memories— that tall oak door down the hall. When I peeked inside, trembles and thrills engulfed me; beating heart filled up with pride. Visioned there within— perfect gift beyond compare. Tears filled up my eyes. Trembles and thrills engulfed me; feelings I could not disguise. What a lovely sight— heartfelt joy of pure delight! Miracle to see— first grand-babe for me was born! Trembles and thrills engulfed me. Sandra M. Haight ~7th Place~ Contest: Trembles and Thrills Sponsor: Olive Eloisa Guillermo Judged: 12/19/2015

Sandra, the repetition of the theme, the strings that keeps my anticipation going, I have no children yet but I felt this each time I am able to participate in the delivery of a baby and the nearest when I held the first baby of our family from my eldest sister… I'm in the scene within your poem… Congratulations!~ Hugs and smiles, Olive Eloisa =`)

I was trying to guess what you saw. I was thinking at first maybe a small child who saw his first bike or rocking horse. But you got the best gift of all to show us, the first grand baby!!

Yes, Andrea, the best gift ever! Although he was the first, that was 26 years ago and I still remember the thrill of seeing him. Thanks for your visit. Hugs, Sandra
