Welcome, Little Angel
By Shwetabh Trivedi
Warmth and endearment, in a soul, lingers,
When you grab somebody’s hand with your tiny precious fingers.
Melts everyone’s heart when you glance at someone with your big dreamy eyes,
Seems as if they’re filled with unexplored imagination, and enthusiasm and are a blessing in disguise.
Drowned in affection, your parents, it is you they embrace,
When they gaze upon your angel-like face.
Your parents cry with joy cause it is true,
That they will love nothing more than you.
Your smile dripped with exhilaration and bewilderment.
I’m grateful that I’ll be able to watch you grow up,
But not as grateful as your parents who will be there to look after you, feed you, and clean you when you’ll throw up.
I would like to take this opportunity to say,
Welcome to the world, Little Angel.
