Oh the look of surprise and wonderment as she felt the flutter inside her for the first time At last it held reality that a life was growing with in her with a future for her to help shape, love to bind Her little dolphin that splashed and pushed, kicked and even hic-upped but bound inside her to grow The time came and none to soon for room was gone, growing was for outside, its time to go Of course she was the most beautiful daughter, perfect in every way, loved and nurtured with care She was creative in everything from appearance to friends, never did follow the crowd, her oneness to share Years go by, the growing never ends, the flexing of wings sometimes smooth, others battered But always allowed to do it her way no matter how deed or word sometimes left parents shattered Then once again, that look of surprise, the flutter from within, the growing of new life All wanting the best in health, wealth and love to give this new member and shield from strife She met the world head on, never expected but always seeing with a newness of youth It didn't take long before all were aware of her doing what she believed in always seeking the truth Doing her thing not only chasing rainbows but looking for the treasure at the end Hope in her eyes that no one can change, a future and seeing everything around the next bend Never expecting always searching, a smile to melt the world, eyes bright with the future Look out world with past generations flowing through her veins who could stop her Oh, the look of surprise and wonderment as she felt the flutter inside her for the first time...... |

Thank you so much, Janet. This is sort of just a poem, but who knows, it could all come true. |
