Bloated bellies hide the unknown beginnings of a brand new life

Presented as a present, wrapped in swaddling clothes ,picture perfect

Babes easy to love always handled with a soft glove ,constantly guarded from all strife

Together talking & toddling ,tasting testing ,all adult actions  still focused to protect

Cuteness & cuddling carry great weight ,interior motives are the bond of life

Midterm becomes more tumultuous ,stepping aside as they become their own architect

Testing time  ,taking it all in ,safety aside ,scaring onlookers,now is a time to thrive

Good or Bad the bonds begin either side wanting to win ,not applying strongest intellect

Building bonds adding strengths ,forming feelings ,daily facing the world with a new drive

Looking on while they love life, like no other time before or after ,hoping their vision is correct

Their rising is becoming our falling ,energies played out possibly  not to revive . R.C.
