A Poem For My First Born

I wrote this just a few days after Sebastien was born, (all the way back in 2014!) when filled with the overwhelming emotion that motherhood brings, and also recovering from a C section 

FOR SEBASTIEN

Bleary eyed Mum, with her still swollen tum, 

Teeny tiny infant with his milk drunk existence, 

Sleep deprived Dad has become house-proud mad;

his Wife so teary happy she seems almost sad. 

Cups of tea in the mornings and hugs all day long, more food for mama so her boy is big and strong

Walks in the afternoon, chest puffed out with pride, slow down says mum, I can’t keep your stride.
