FIRST FLUTTERINGS

I recall first flutterings

Of your life inside

My womb

I recall that feeling

I just cannot describe

There is a blessing there

Electric pulses that traveled

Through my fertilized ovum

Energy spewed forth by God

To make one who will be none like another

All that he created and placed there

In my womb

Was magic

And I felt it

In those first flutterings

And as you grew there inside of me

We began to connect forever

To bond

As I sang to you

As you stretched my belly with your growth

I would lie on my back

And watch movements of this beautiful

Wonderful and miraculous thing

Of which I am blessed by God
