Birth

Within the beauty by a scented candle

Marvels the dream that heaven consumes

To touch an infant and form his sweet soul

Led by the path it'll faithfully renew

Like the universe that surely embraces the womb

To have it forever and deny every way

Evil this world can stress on her heart

I long for the secret of how it can change

Along with the things that have made up the minds

Of her guardians above to bless this life whole

And love that such a chance had gave way

To fate which tells of a story that flows

By way of her life and inspiriting essence

May her moment to birth be separate from harm

Far past the moment when tears from her eyes

Glisten as she holds her newborn in her arms

While loved ones gaze on the miracle which God

Had blessed within every ounce of this bundle

And drown in that grace every time that she glows

With her little one warm in the blanket to cuddle

empirical shadows and beautiful light
