AND I LOVED HER

Post by Cropduster » Fri Apr 24, 2015 6:32 am

AND I LOVED HER

Months of cleaning,
preparing,
primping,
preening,
and suddenly she was there.
And I loved her.


Months of waiting,
hoping,
praying,
anticipating,
and suddenly she was there.
And I adored her.

Months of guessing,
princess?
daughter?
blessing?
and suddenly she was there.
And I knew her.

I knew her eyes.
I knew her smile.
I had known her
all the while.
She was her mother newly born.
And I loved her.
