Cradling the newborn, the first time ever,
close to the bosom , snuggling,
words fail to describe the surreal moment
a surge of hormones swirling
as I look at the angelic face
in a trance, my heart melts
tears moisten the eyes,
while lips curve into a smile.
Cascading emotions tangle
euphoria, fear, anxiety , peace,
all play together,
a life defining moment.
Unconditional love flows
joyous smiles and well being
wished for the tiny bundle of joy
the radiant face of the new mother
narrates an overwhelming, yet contented tale!
