This is a poem about a woman waiting a lifetime to become a mother.
I had waited what seemed a lifetime just to hear one word
and I waited, waited and waited……
I would each doctor said that was assured
but still nothing and I so I waited…
It finally occurred to me waiting is just that
no more than a wait
So I had to take notice to see that I was
Standing still hand in hand with waiting.
Movement was in order now if I ever to hear
the word that one glorious word
Look down at my feet always facing forward
There is nothing holding you but another word
Fear….
And then like a miracle my word began to take shape
and like a hurricane it swept me towards it
life happens as it is to happen
waiting was no longer a mistake
It turns out that he was waiting too
that our words were one in the same
And we were always destined to find each other
waiting was part of lifes game
Timing was everything so it now seems
And when I finally held him in my arms
He was more than I had ever dreamed
