The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

a gift

so tiny

so perfect to look at

every finger a miniature of my own

 

but they say you are different

they say you may not live

something is wrong behind those beautiful eyes

 

baby in a plastic box

looking out through a maze of wires and tubes

yet still even so small you smile and coo

 

years later and i look into those same eyes

a child in a man's body

but still you smile and melt my heart

Very nice, Wren! I was especially struck by the lines in the third stanza:

 

"baby in a plasic box

looking out through a maze of wires a tubes"

 

They're especially emotional imagery and very effective given your theme. :)

 

You ... uh... might want to take a look at your spelling and typos again, though. 'miniature' : 'plastic' : 'wires and tubes' Heh. Don't mind me, I'm the local grammar and spelling stickler. :P
