It's Time To Be Born

This special time before you can kick and squeal seems like bliss to us There's an eager silence building around your mother that will soon be shattered with your song of life I yearn to welcome you deep into my heart as a very treasured gift My dreams of your intoxicating smile already tickle my tummy like the feather of a baby dove being slowly drawn across the tip of my nose Awaiting your arrival are dozens of fluffy, frilly, soft, lacy pink garments we shall wrap and keep you warm in However you seem content to slumber in the warmth of your cocoon As we patiently await the arrival of your screeches and wails, secretly as a whole, your family is chomping at the bit Any day the curtain of fog will be lifted and your identity revealed So fear not our dear Savannah Elizabeth and come dance into our lives It's Time To Be Born Written in honor of the upcoming birth of my second grand babe/ 1st grand daughter
