About the Poem
I wrote this for my little Garrett who was born in Wyoming in September - and I even got to be there - to play with his brother Jake, of course.
A Child is Born |
by Nancy Ness |
Today a child was born, Life's first breath vivified. From womb his essence shorn With mortals to abide. Those eyes of innocence, A cherubim at rest, Observe with hesitance The world his entry blessed. His untouched canvas waits To host a masterpiece Of hues time's brush creates From life-long verities. Are infants' palettes clear? An age none can recall. What does he see and hear? It seems he now knows ALL. |
