midwife approvedmy poem for Matthew...
He came to me up through the water
Looking for the face that matched the voice he'd been hearing.
When he found me he seemed relieved.
What a journey he'd traveled
and now in his first destination-
my arms .
I thought of the times yet to come
when he'd find me again and again.
All the journeys yet taken,
from inches away, to miles.
Then I prayed,
may I always be a refuge.
A perfect stranger, yet so familiar.
And in the moment of his birth,
surrounded by love,
safe in his home,
warm in my arms,
I knew
we were meant for each other.
Looking for the face that matched the voice he'd been hearing.
When he found me he seemed relieved.
What a journey he'd traveled
and now in his first destination-
my arms .
I thought of the times yet to come
when he'd find me again and again.
All the journeys yet taken,
from inches away, to miles.
Then I prayed,
may I always be a refuge.
A perfect stranger, yet so familiar.
And in the moment of his birth,
surrounded by love,
safe in his home,
warm in my arms,
I knew
we were meant for each other.
