counting down

looking forward to your coming...
three more months and counting.
bet you're impatient, too,

kicking every hour or two.
your mom says you're pretty restless already.
reacting to any sound, mostly to andrea boccelli. (good heavens!)


will you love ballet? will you be a doctor someday?
will pink be your favorite color? maybe purple, maybe lavander?
will you have pudgy toes? will you have a small cute nose?
what will be your first halloween costume?
will you want to spray on your mom's perfume?

looking forward, sweet little girl,

to seeing you, to holding you, to caressing you,
to loving you.
