Baby New Year

By: Ammie L. Peters, 12/31/10

The current year cries in labor pains of all it has endured.

No looking back to gain a day, or making regrets fewer.

One year ago we each gave birth to a new and precious child.

Did we cherish the gift and hold it tight or ignore it for awhile?

Did we abandon it as we clung to days of past that will
never come again?

Or did we embrace the gift of what we were given and let a
life begin?

Did we greet each day with love and care nurturing it to
grow?

Or did we throw the baby out with the bath water, as the
saying goes.

The labor pains of looking back may seem too strong with
which to deal,

But here we are one year later not believing it is real.

Time turns its back and slips through cracks not missing us
– not even for a minute,

But yet all we can do is sit and wish we only had more of it
so we can finish!

Finish what? I ask. The project list and things we think that
we must do?

Did you give birth to work and lists or did it just become a
part of you?

Welcome the gift of each new birth with a thankful heart and
smile upon your face,

Love, cherish and care for it never letting it out of your sweet
embrace.

You will then see the baby grow to bring you joy and peace making your heart content,

Because that’s the moment you understand the reason for
which it was sent.
