My Baby

Today’s BRAIN DUMP will be in the form of another randomly selected poem.

When my children were little, I didn’t really understand the miracle of the gift of even being able to have children. I took for granted that I was able to have children, assuming every woman could. Today I sit with the gravity of what I now realize is a miracle many women wish for and will never be blessed with. I’m thankful to have them and in retrospect, I wish I had a few more. My children are incredible human beings and I’m not saying that as an account of them being mine. They teach me things daily. For that I’m thankful. They are a reflection of my life purpose which is to leave people I encounter better versions of themselves than they were before we met. Enjoy the piece , like, share, comment and subscribe.

MY BABY

The missing child

The piece of the puzzle I always wondered about

what you would look like

What your voice would sound like

How tall you would stand

The attention you would command

Just because you entered the room

Your spirit was overwhelming immediately

Like a lost body part that had suddenly been found

Your quiet demeanor

Obvious inner strength

Anyone with eyes will recognise greatness when it stares you in the face.

Beautiful child,

my beautiful child,

no longer a babe, but a man.

Your journey has just begun

You have been carefully crafted and purposefully prepared to lead

You can’t help but succeed.

Your gentle demeanor and quiet disposition are your super powers that will fuel your brilliance.

Don’t ever allow anyone or anything to dim your bright light my precious child

You were a king from the very beginning.

So stop spinning and just,

Look in the mirror.

You will see what royalty looks like.

Become familiar with the face of a king because that is who is living within .

You will be the lender not the borrower.

The head and not the tail.

The leader who will not fail because you’re protected.

Don’t waver or worry about what looks like rejection.

Understand, their rejection is for your protection and say thank you.

Smile always

Your smile is more powerful than the sun.

Laugh out loud,

Laughter is medicine, spread healing wherever you go.

Your journey has just begun

Don’t grow weary or become disquieted

With privilege comes responsibility and you will always be sent the support you need to succeed,

Know your place in this world as a leader,

And lead.
