My Baby Poem by CHARMAINE SIMPSON

My beautiful boy Noah
Words can never say enough,
I can only try and make you understand the depth of love I feel for you.
While I carried you safely in my tummy, and you began to grow,
So too did the bond we began to form.
From the moment you entered my world, my life, as I knew it
Became this place that seemed so overwhelming!
I felt scared, I felt inadequate, and I felt as though I had jumped into
The biggest challenge I will ever face.
I looked at your innocent, soft, most beautiful face for the first time,
Finally I was able to meet you.
There you were, a part of your mum, and a part of your dad,
You were instantly loved more than any love,
Either of us had ever experienced.
The love I hold within my soul for you,
Is the strongest internal love, I believe, that can be felt.
This love and attachment so overpowering,
If faced with the circumstance,
I would give my life for yours, without a second for thought.
You have given me the most amazing gift,
A once in a lifetime experience,
My precious first born child –
My son.
I gave to you the gift of life, filled with unconditional love.
You gave to me the gift of the most truly,
Cherished little person in my world – you!
You my baby are my life,
You are my love,
You are my everything,
You have shown me a new meaning of love and of family!
