I brought her to the hospital
And I know she is in pain
She says she’ll die today
But I know she’d sustain.
As painful it may be
As fearsome it may seem
My legs are shaking deep inside
I can hear her Scream.
You’d say I can’t feel the pain
She says its life threatening
I believe she’ll do it well
This moment of awakening.
The Doctor consoles her gently
The nurses prepare the room
My heart beats fast, yet sinks a bit
My baby is about to bloom.
I watch the process in silence
My heart is aching slow
The Doctor asks her to push
Our Child will make Her Glow.
Its a Girl and She’s beautiful
I heard the Doctor say
Everyone knows I cried
Saying Happy Mothers’ Day!!

P.S: I wrote this in the labor room while watching my wife give birth to our Daughter. It took me about 5 to 7 minutes to write till the second last stanza. I wrote the last stanza after seeing my newborn baby. My Daughter is my Universe!!
