A Baby Poem, while we are waiting for baby

When One Becomes Two
 - Jacquelyn deLaveaga

A new life begins - 
a fresh heartbeat,
a flutter of feet,
a new soul.

Little miracle placed in my womb - 
I feed you, I nurture you
and the string between our hearts grows strong.

Little one growing in my womb - 
Daddy and I lay our hands upon my growing belly
and wait for you to flutter a reply.

Little person living in my womb - 
I welcome and cherish your consuming presence
and long to gaze into your deep, warm eyes.

Little babe curled up in my womb - 
I embrace your tiny self and dream of holding you forever.

Oh baby, sweet baby - 
a fresh heartbeat,
a flutter of feet,
a new soul.
