Happy Birthday My All

-

It was on a day like today years ago
I cant say when it was cus I'm not sure
But the time was right
Cus all was a-rhyme
For a baby frail and delicate greeted the world with a cry
Whereas everyone watched half in tears and half a-smile
Confused how well to welcome this child.

Blessing it was and same was she was named
Like a starry sky beautifies the night
She is a blessing to all that went nigh
Even before I knew her name.
Now that I do, she bears a new name
(My All)

Days and years have past
She -now grown- maybe too fast
But certainly grown enough to become my lass
That's looking beyond our hurts and tears, alas

Today she starts a marathon race
Marathon race around the year's 365 days
May everyday trickle grace
And every smile take pain away always
Clocks count you into completeness and out of haze
Clouds make way for the moon and stars
That all days may bring you to a place of praises.

My pen is feable
And my thoughts dwindles
But of this I'm certain
I will love and cherish you everyday again
For to me, everyday is your birthday.

Happy birthday My All. (T2M)

JOY FROM PAIN

There we sat Our hearts racing at the speed of light Then came the doctors in a file Only this time not wearing white Though the wait was short But given the time, it didn’t seem quite   There was an incision Then came the shrill cry There laid the exhausted mother Then there was a lovely child Right there awesome God showed his might   It has been prayers, long wait and hope It all just grew wings and now it is a-fly

THE MELANCHOLIC NURSE

-
Looks lie too, this I've found true Scary clouds gather round  her look Her ghostly gown shone, her face grim Grim and stiff, needing a smile grease. The clouds grew the closer she drew Her eyes stooped, beheld me still blue Flicked her needle, I saw smile brew Like a hornet ready to sting Looks lie too. The sun's gone rounds, still, nothing new My nurse's frown had my heart to chew There seemed a blue moon about this She smiled handing my discharge bill Her face wore this glow, she turned new Looks lie too
