Ode to my unborn child


O child of mine as yet unborn your presence fills my heart with joy-
Each movement assures me of your life within the confines of my womb...
At day I proudly watch the swell of growth that heralds your impending birth-
In dreams your features are so perfect; filling my heart with love and longing...
O count the days till I will hold you nestled closely at my breast-
Hear the heart that beats for you,dear- it yours now till I draw no breath..

  4. I'm extremely inspired with your writing skills as neatly as
    with the structure to your blog. Is that this a paid subject or did you customize it your self?
    Either way stay up the excellent high quality writing, it is
    uncommon to see a great blog like this one today..
