A hush descends, a waiting deep,
A secret kept, a promise to keep.
Within the dark, a world unknown,
A tiny seed, a heart of its own.
The warmth of life, a gentle tide,
Nourishes dreams where shadows hide.
Muscles twitch, a first small cry,
A yearning breaks, to reach the sky.
A mother's touch, a love so fierce,
Welcomes the light, a brand new verse.
Blinking eyes, a world so bright,
A gasp of air, a star takes flight.
Fragile and new, a life unfolds,
Tiny fingers, stories untold.
Wrinkled skin and downy hair,
A precious gift, a love to share.
Tears may fall, a whispered plea,
But in those eyes, a world to see.
A bond is formed, a love so true,
A mother's heart, forever new.
The journey starts, a path unknown,
But in that birth, a seed is sown.
Of love and hope, and dreams to chase,
A tiny spark, a brand new face.
So celebrate, this precious day,
A miracle unfolds, to light the way.
For in this birth, a future gleams,
A life begins, a world of dreams.
