She Shines

Beneath a moon of fullness,
where darkness shown day and night,
she laid for a month times nine,
developed and protected in water's pool

Upper lashes kissed her lower
as she miraculously tunneled her way,
that led her through an open passage,
into the arms of love's embrace


She took her very first breath,
and was greeted by the sun,
that paled in comparison to this baby,
whom shines both night and day

Just today, I held a newborn baby, a miracle to behold. When the wee one is your own flesh and blood, the joy is beyond belief. Congratulations to the whole family. Lucky baby, having her own loving grandma to cherish her.

Oh, what joy as the Circle of Life keeps bringing you new blessings and fountains of love.

Just two years ago dear Camryn Rae came into your family and now the miracle of Kendall Brea!

Christine, my dear friend, few savor or deserve the role of grandparent more than you, and even fewer children are blessed with a grandparent of such a kind and loving heart.

May God continue to bless your family while you continue to bless us in your Authorsden family with the sharing of your love and talented writings.

Thank you for sharing your thrill with us today!

SHEER BRILLIANCE!!! :)) I wrote a poem about a new-born under this title some while back, Christine, and I love the way that each unique miracle of birth is captured UNIQUELY in the hearts and minds of those most affected by it. CONGRATULATIONS!!! Love the picture that adds such a piquancy to your articulate words. (Ach, that intoxicating scent of a newborn's head!!!!!!!!! Now I'm broody!!) This is such a sensitive and richly imaged insight. Definitely inspired - but then, the gift of life IS, isn't it?! Love to you all, Kate xx
