A gift for my child

I touch my tummy in awe
delicately contemplating
the possibility of motherhood
there is no seed planted there as of yet,
but one day there will be...



a little seedling,
planted from love and passion
a love so strong,
one impossible to deny
one that El has blessed me infinitely with
for it was always fore planned


my darling do you know,
how long you were wanted?
how much you were and are loved?
you are my life,
my greatest achievement
a source of inspiration
transcendence swathed in light so pure


and now as wishes are placed out into the universe
and prayers are muttered with reverent thought and care
I prepare for you with anticipation of the blessed event,
a legacy of love I weave within my heart
an abundance of love I carry deep inside my soul...

I do not write in any particular form. I write whichever way my muse directs me to. My child, just the idea of him or her fills me with joy.

    I love this. The picture is awesome. You have brought tears to my eyes, and trust me, that is not easy. I can not wait until I can hold our baby. The last line is the kicker and is a perect ending. Thanks so much for sharing this.
