    A poem from a 'baby in waiting'

    Hi All,

    My partner and I have been off the pill for a long while now but actively TTC since April.

    This is a little poem I wrote for my beautiful Fiance. It's not poetically complex by any means, but these are my feelings and I wanted to share it with the world.

    I thought I would share.


    One Day

    One day I'll be a little babe,
    Safe in my daddy's arms.
    With lots of love and cuddles,
    Out of the way of harm.

    I know I'm not around yet,
    But its a sure thing I can say,
    when you and mummy have me,
    it will be the happiest day.

    When I come into this world,
    the first face that I'll see,
    will be my daddy's happy smiling face,
    shining down at me.

    I know I'm not around yet,
    but I'm hoping it will be soon,
    while my mummy cries tears of joy,
    You will be over the moon.

    In your eyes I'm perfect,
    it's a hard thing to live up to.
    But with all your love and guidance,
    my love for you will shine through.

    I know I'm not around yet,
    but mummy prays I will be.
    I know you're ready for me to come,
    and love me wholeheartedly.

    When I'm in mums tummy,
    I'll be listening out for you,
    telling me you love me,
    and me thinking "I love you too"

    I know I'm not around yet,
    but mummy wants me to say,
    that she can't wait to give you the gift,
    of me on my 'birth-day'.

    When god lets me come to you,
    I want you to hold me tight.
    Give me cuddles, play with me
    and love me with all of your mite.

    I know I'm not around yet,
    but come the time I am,
    I couldn't wish for a better dad,
    Or a kinder loving man.

    what a lovely thing for you to do.... its a very moving poem! i wrote something for my son for my scrapbook when he was very little because i had so much emotion that i wanted to get it down, i wrote a lovely poem/letter to him and showed my DP, and he asked me if i got it off the internet... ugh

    haha, Miss Kate, It's funny how they assume we would do something they would do..

    When my partner says something like that, I have to think of it in terms of this:

    That he must be thinking the poem/letter etc was sooooooo good that it MUST have been from the internet
