Engels geboortegedicht : 'Little fingers curl up'

Little fingers curl up to make a tiny fist
as fairy lips purse out as if to make a gentle
kiss
Eyes wide as a kitten's, and little button nose
you look like someone's angel, down to your
pudge toes
Although you are so wrinkled and your face is
still so pale
and the only song you seem to know sounds like
a shrilling wail
When you are here before me, finally, I feel
complete
I've waited so long, sweetheart... at last, we
finally meet
