Poetry by Renee - 12. For Baby J
Fear and hope do battle
Each struggles to prevail
The future stretches before me
The winner remains unclear
The world can be a scary place
So many dangers to behold
How will I ever keep you safe
When so many things can go wrong
The birds are chirping around me
The sky is bright and clear
Is this a sign of things to come
Or the calm before the storm
We’ve wanted you forever
It feels too good to be true
That now you move within me
Your heartbeat strong and sure
It won’t be that much longer
Before we hold you in our arms
You’ll no longer be inside me
But you’ll never leave my heart
We’ll do our best to protect you
Keep you safe from harm
But let you make your own mistakes
And catch you when you fall
We’ll be your light in the darkness
Your strength when you feel weak
Just be who you are meant to be
And know you’ll always be our son
