Ode To
My Unborn Child
O child of mine as yet unborn,
Your presence fills my heart with
joy-
Each movement assures me of your
life
Within the confines of my womb.
At day I proudly watch the swell
Of growth that heralds your
impending birth-
In dreams your features are so
perfect;
Filling my heart with love and
longing.
O count the days till I will hold
you
Nestled closely at my breast-
Hear the heart that beats for you,
Dear-
It yours now and always till I draw
no breath

the LORD
and the fruit of the womb is His
reward.'
