This Moment




This is a poem I wrote for Andy, my daughter, about the day I had her. Please give me any kind of feed back. I particularly need help with a title and any other emotions or things I could describe.




A Hospital Bed


At the crack of dawn




A child is brought


To Life


Screaming




Tears of Joy


Big shiny pink balloons


And flowers




Cradling you in my arms


For the first time


Little grayish/black eyes


Stare back at me




Our eyes meet


This moment is unforgettable


A wonderful blessing




The day Andy was born was the best day of my life to this day. She brought so much joy and wonderful things to my life, she inspires me so much.

  1. Not only are the pictures ADORABLE! but the poem definitely evokes a lot of emotion too.
    For a title you could use a line out of your poem? I do that a lot for my poems. lol
    But, it's definitely really good!

  2. You could play around with the "This Moment" idea for your title, too. "A Moment," "The Moment," "A Single Moment".... something like that.
