First Night

Peacefully quiet in slumber,
                        time's glowing lullaby
                        in view of cradled dreams
                        erases the frightened lie
                        Watching his fragile body
                        rise and fall with the night
                        A tiny, mirrored heartbeat
                        forgives her silent sigh
                        And tracing one finger
                        created much like her own
                        Images of golden futures
                        lay patient to fly home
                        in the hope of a newborn son
