My poem entitled: Reflection

I wrote this poem when I was about six months pregnant with my firstborn son, Micah. Enjoy. I still love this poem dearly!

Reflection

I see my reflection in you

You’re so beautiful

My baby boy

You bring me so much joy

A baby!

Who would have thought that someone who was just figuring out how to become a woman is now having a baby?

Here you come without warning

Putting me through pleasure and pain

Making me eat everything in sight

And making me gain weight

So long to all of my futures plans

I guess now I have to share those plans with you

Of course, we can’t leave Daddy out, now can we?

Do you see him crying? 
He said he wouldn’t cry

But look at you

You ARE beautiful

You’re a miracle, just like a ray of sunshine

I see my reflection in you

You’re so beautiful

My baby boy

You bring me so much joy

Tell me, what was it like talking to God?

Did you choose me to be your mommy?

Did God approve of me?

Well, whatever the case may be

You’re here now

And I’m so proud

We’re so proud

I see my reflection in you

You’re so beautiful

My baby boy

You bring me so much joy
