Many moons ago now I birthed a child, made of wonder and light. I'd seen this light flicker, and illuminate my heart as I nurtured their body in mine.
The sun that rose on that day, brought with it a searing, intense heat. As the earth warmed I sat disconnected from it, with my bare feet on a sterile floor.
As the flurry of people, delivery, expectations, and the din together blurred, the shadows moved across the sky. I looked in awe as I held in my arms this beloved baby of mine.
Now they stand, and play, and ponder,
With an ever expanding mind,
Life with this human, created from me,
Not just from flesh, but from wonder.
