Wake Me Up

A plea of the unborn child to its mother. Wake Me Up When the time is ripe, awaken me! I long to see your world. How many blessings there will be; They're soon to be unfurled! I'll see you with my eager eyes, Your soothing voice I'll hear. One day I'll thank Jehovah God that you have kept me near. I want to grasp your finger, please, and feel your warm embrace. I want to heartily reflect the smile upon your face. I want to learn to walk and talk and say my ABC's. I want to learn of animals and count my 123's. I'll learn these things if you teach me, yes, I will learn them so. I'll hug you tightly every day and never let you go. I'll need your comfort when I cry; At times, life can be rough. However, I think you will find Your love will be enough. In fact, I'll bring you days of joy where you are feeling pain, and just as you have cared for me, You'll see me do the same. When time is ripe, please, let me live; I want to wake up too! I want to live a joyful life. I want to cherish you. Please wake me up when time has come. Please don't send me away. A precious gift you now possess Miraculous each day! Chanté Walker 2/22/20
