Birth



I came, all fresh and bounteous, ready to run my course and make a mark.
I came, accompanied by joy and promise, regardless of the manner or wont.
I came, you looked at me and saw me, not sure, much awed, understand?
I came.

Dear one, how precious you are!
Long we awaited your arrival,
And now you have come.
We can't help but rejoice at your coming.

I've come. I'm ready. Let's do this, but how?
You have misgivings? I have some too.
Let's not be scared.
A lot can happen, a lot will happen.
This is my journey as much as it is yours.
Find a place for me in your hearts that will remain when the novelty has worn.
Look at me and see me, try to understand.
