What a bundle of joy arrived for us
He has tiny hands and tiny feet
He sleeps and sleeps and eat and eats
And spreads joy just by his presence
In between times, he wrinkles and yawns
Stretches and kicks, reaches and grabs
Adjusting, exploring this place where he has landed
With these new people he is getting to know
He is a perfect wee miniature of us
And yet, a daily amazing reminder
Of the Creator energy among us
Of the extraordinary miracle of Life
We have all changed profoundly
With his timely arrival into our lives
We coo and rock, gesture and cuddle
We have found our gentle hearts refreshed
We are charmed by his very presence
We are reminded to be our best selves
We are insistently needed to care for another
While each being blessed in perfect ways
He is an ever present reminder
That all of life is Sacred
That we can’t begin to fully grasp
The power of Divine Source
We are all called to help raise the children
They are so little and without knowing
We are the ones to bring the Light
To every little one among us
A Sacred tiny being with so much power
He brings the goodness and miracle of birth
Uprooting all of us as he inserts himself
Right into the middle of our lives
Reminding us that we too are powerfully loved
That patience with self and others is ever needed
That gentleness is always rewarded
That kindness is miracle energy worth cultivating for us all
