A poem for my newborn
A short poem written to the baby that's getting used to being earth-side...
I’m bringing you something a bit different today…If you’ve been with me on Instagram since the beginning, you’ll know that I used to write a lot of poetry. I’m going to start writing again and sharing posts that are a little more soulful, which will include new and old poems. I really hope you enjoy this one <3
You are new to this strange planet,
And all it’s brutal chaos…
You’re used to the warm and gentle quiet,
from your world of only us.
These wide and open spaces,
are so cold and unforgiving…
Your body longs to be surrounded
by the one in which it was living.
Any kind of separation
Is a language you don’t speak…
Yours is the rhythm of my voice
And the sound of my heartbeat.
To you, we are one person,
Our beings intertwined…
So it makes perfect sense you wish to stay
Within these arms of mine.
