Salinye Posted April 10, 2003 Report Share Posted April 10, 2003 I know this is very rhymy and cutesy, but I have to tell you, there was a lot of emotion behind it when I wrote it. Perhaps you'll see why. :0) Two On my knees in humble prayer I sent my requests above. If it would be His will to please send me a sweet spirit to love. If this one wish of my heart would be granted I could promise in return, to train that child to love the sun, the Lord and the ability to learn. Later that day I walked through the park admiring the beauty all around. I longed for a child to hold my hand getting lost in the sights and sounds. I thought again of the things we would share, this child and myself. The way it must feel to love someone more than anything else. Later that week I called my mom to share the news that had come. We were truly blessed for sometime soon we'de have a daughter or son. The love that filled my heart, I thought would overflow. I again dropped to my knees with gratitude to show. Later that year I sat alone in the quiet peace of my room. I passed my hand over my stomache thinking of you in my womb. The scriptures say that we are blessed tenfold, I know that this is true. For I can feel the love within for not only one but two. Now I hold you both in my arms marvelling at the perfection within you. As I reflect I can't remember ever feeling complete without two. Again I feel the urge to pray in thanks to the Lord above. For blessing me with the gift of not one but two children to love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peredhil Posted April 10, 2003 Report Share Posted April 10, 2003 heh, exceedingly abundant indeed, to get twins. Motherhood poems are neato! Fatherhood poems seem to be filled with changing diapers, wishing for more than two hours of sleep at a time, and worries at what they are unleasing on humanity. No wonder Mother's Day is one of the most popular holidays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrenWind Posted April 13, 2003 Report Share Posted April 13, 2003 (edited) There was no reason to be shy about this poem . It made me smile and think about walking home with my son every day from school and reveling in his joy at finding a bug or a feather while he chatters constantly about his day . Thanks Edited April 13, 2003 by WrenWind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
