I'm a wanderer, a nomad...I don't live in one particular area, Just wherever I end up.

I know you're in there
A new life has begun to develop
Inside of me
I wonder what you'll be like
What you'll look like
Who's qualities you'll take on
You have already attatched yourself
To my heart
and my soul
You are a part of me
You are a part of the one I love
You are everything
How can I love something so much
That I haven't even seen yet
That I haven't held or touched...
I know you're there
Waiting to come out
To hold me and love me
Unconditionally
And I know that when you're finally here
I will love so intensely
That no passionate love affair
could ever compare
You're the new life we created
The new life we'll share
Your tiny hands, your tiny feet
Your tiny soul is a part of me
And I can't give you the world
But I sure will try
I'll make sure I'm there
When you feel you need to cry
No one will hurt you
And if they do, they'll be sorry
I can't promise you a life of happieness
But I can offer you my love
My undying love
Until long after
The day our bodies expire
You are the new life
I have anticipated for so long
And I will show you
My new life
That life is worth living....

This poem is so lovely...every father and child would love to have their wife and mother to feel this way about them.  James
