A New Life

Janet Kuypers
Winter 1986

A new life
A bundle of joy
Your flesh
Your blood
Your love
Your life
This little child
an individual
is yet
an extansion
of you

A new life
A bundle of joy
Your hair
Your eyes
Your laugh
Your Cry
This little child
a separate life
is yet
an extansion
of you

A new life
A bundle of you
Mirroring your smile
Reflecting your live
Being your life
This little child
this life that’s new
will always
be
an extension
of you
