From Womb to Room...by Rose G.

Deep breath in and now release

The moment is coming fast

The tension is high about to take flight

But the moment has not yet passed

The months of strength have lasted so long

And they've reached their end

The end of that, the beginning of this

A new long journey to tend

It gathers around and clothes you in hope

And now tears roll down your cheek

You've waited so long and struggled so much

Emotions have reached their peak

Though held in place unable to move you are

So close, so close, not so far

You are being held in careful hands

He lovingly keeps an eye on your star

Your heart beats faster with a boom, boom, boom

But hush.....

An infant cry fills the room

D&K

Congratulations on your darling baby girl, may she fill your world with sunshine and warmth.

A tear slowly rolls down my cheek
My breath is gone I cannot speak
Where is the love that should reside in hearts
What some are capable of has torn mine apart
Sadness enfolds me, there seems no relief
Frustration and anger at the lack of peace

America my country for which I have cried
We hold our flag high showing our pride
Strength finds me here and I must go on
I've remembered the words to my country's song
I dry my eyes and my head I raise
This is, "the land of the free and the home of the brave"
