Victorious Day Heat is burning sweats off my chest, As I breathe deeply for inner strength. My heartbeat is hopping faster than ever, My body so sore and tired that I wished My mother was with me, holding me in her arms. Suddenly, a vision comes, I see myself holding you in my arms. Just then, my breath becomes easily, And I hear your first cry in my motherhood. Oh tiny little hands and feet you have, I hang my arms over towards you. Oh thin hair on your bald little head, I blow delicately to your hair, As my fingers slide along your face. Suddenly, I am reminded of my mother's words. I see through your eyes in seeking resemblance. Just then, I feel my pain is worthy, Because I have found my mother's eyes in you. Oh how I wish you won't be like me, The me who always made my mother mad. Oh how I wish I could be young again- As I hold you dear against my chin, I realize how time is tightening on me. I am old enough to be a mother; Someday my parents will return to Him, A life is born, Resembling a life cycle is near to the end. Oh dear Lord, don't hold back your gifts. A sudden kicks from you, my child, Waken me up from tears of memories. My hands hold a new life, Transforming marriage to completeness. (c)Dec 7, 2003 Eliza Simmons Eliza Simmons |
