Notes About The Poem

Ultrasound

Ultra-sound

I see you. 
I see you there, 
inside of me. 
How can that be? 

What a miracle you are? 
What a joy to come in my life. 
I am thankful for the gift, 
I do not deserve. 

Let my heart do all that it can, 
to preserve the treasure, 
that I have been given. 
To teach, 
preach... 
and love... 
as you do, 
so that he will know You, 
as I do, when he is grown. 

God bless my son, 
I will meet you soon. 
Thank you, Lord, 
for his... 
birthday. 

Peek a boo... 
I see you. 


(A friend reminded me about the first time, 
I saw my kid. then this fell out of my heart, 
and onto the paper. )
