Our Daughter

Oh god, what day is it
wasn't I supposed to have
that unwanted visitor
the day before yesterday

I'm scared, should I buy one
am I overreacting like usual
maybe but what-if
I guess I should

Here goes, pee on the stick
now I sit and wait
with baited breath
what will it say

Holy shit, there are two lines
is that yes or no
reading the instructions
there's life in me

What now, should I tell him
maybe go to the doctor
get blood drawn
wait for their answer

Phone's ringing, could this be it
I don't want to answer
pick it up
congratulations you are pregnant

Damn it, he needs to know
how do I tell him
just say it
honey, we are pregnant

Not again, I hate this puking
it's all I ever do
morning, noon, night
doesn't matter when apparently

I'm nervous, today is the ultrasound
he is holding my hand
there's the heartbeat
it's a little person

Oh god, it hurts so bad
make the pain go away
I want drugs
she is almost here

It hurts, I can't push anymore
he is urging me on
helping me breathe
a few more pushes

Sweet heaven, I hear her cries
daddy is cutting the cord
cleaning her up
I can see her

Beautiful baby, I can't stop crying
she is in my arms
sweet baby smell
and she is mine

Thank you, for such a gift
my precious little pink cherub
daddy kisses me
we are a family

Going home, with a precious bundle
Jor'Jianna Rayne is finally home
her brother's smile
we are complete

In a list

The birth of my last child...

  • The first word that comes to mind when I think of new-born baby: Blossom. I don't know why. When my mother came home with my baby sister, she was so tiny, so pink, and I couldn't believe we had a new member to the family that wasn't a dog. Miss Molly. She was so beautiful, and now my 6-year-old sister still is, although she is very annoying. Right now she has a toy bear and is "boinging" him all over me. When he gets to the top of my head he goes "Wee-Haa!!!" But anyway, back to your poem:
    Oh my gosh!! This was a beautiful poem! You made the baby sound so adorable I loved the feeling of wholeness you gave, now you are a family, and don't need anything more. I also liked how you skipped time, from when you were taking the pregnancy test, to the blood test, to when you had the baby, to when you are now whole. This was a beatiful poem. It covered everything with having a baby. Nice memories, and Jor'Jianna is a wonderful name.
    Thank you for sharing this write with me.
    Simply remarkable.
