The Happiness of an Expectant Mother

The happy couple and expectant parents. What an amazing mom and dad they'll be!

Your tiny heart beat resonates with mine

 Lub-dub! In every single fraction of a time

I felt the same heartbeat on that very hour

On God’s day, when I first saw your father

You are the symbol of our united faith

Of love growing sturdy, abating hate

My heart skips a beat when we bond

Just like when your father first held my hand

My anticipation has come to last

Who would you look like, if I may just ask?

Will you be reserved just like your daddy

Or like mommy, extrovert with a capital E?

Will you be blessed with long legs for running

Or hands that perfectly weave words for writing?

When you grow up, will you be a linguist

An engineer, a teacher, or maybe a scientist?

Wondering how you’ll look like became a task

Will you become a carbon of mom and dad-us?

Or will you take after your grandmas and grandpas?

Oh! The suspense is just killing all of us!

God’s clock is now running fast and steady

A date has already been picked by destiny

Nothing can cease or set us apart

On your birthday, you shall complete my heart
