Labour of Love

Birth is a labour of love...
A time to reflect.
In doing this,
you'll gain self-respect.
As you go through the process,
you'll know it's worthwhile.
The aura is novel,
as you caress your new child.
The family circle has started.
The venture - about to begin.
You have amazing strength
that radiates from within.

Birth is so special,
it carries you through each day.
It brings forth from you a brilliance,
that guides him on his way.
As the years go by,
you will always know -
that you gave everything
from your body and soul.

Birth will always be
a labour of love.
Witha little hand -
from someone above.
