A Mother’s Thoughts At Birth
By: Tabitha Lynn Cowan
Pain and agony, Hope and fear,
The joyful knowing that you will soon be here.
I close my eyes and push with all my might,
Knowing that this is the end of the fight.
With a loud cry and happy tears,
Everyone around us knows that you are here.
All ten fingers and all ten toes,
You are mine to nurture and help grow.
You are the ultimate realization of love,
The perfect gift from God above.
Without the love between Daddy and me,
You would not be.
Forever part of us, our heart and soul,
Worth all the pain as off to sleep I start to fall.
I wish you the happiest life ever,
Know that no one can ever love you better.
Perfect little angel in my arms,
I will keep you safe from all of life’s harms.
Sleep sweet and safe my darling babe,
And thank God everyday for the life love has made.
