Poetry: On birth

by Mary Tyrer

Created on: September 17, 2008   Last Updated: August 11, 2010

"A New Life"

Sitting here lonely in a waiting room
Silence is all around, and all we can do is wait.
Listening for the cry that will soon come from her womb
The birth of a child, newborns child is always comes late.

 She will be here soon and the countdown begins

Strange sounds fill the air we know she is here.

She is soon to come home another countdown begins

We bring her home today her today and her name is Claire.

She came home today and has thick brown curly hair
Everyone's is waiting for her to get here to celebrate.
There is nothing better than a smile from Claire
Around her nana there is no one who will dare to debate.
