This poem describes the joy of experiencing motherhood for the first time and knowing that in this child's life he/she loves you most of all.
Mommy Cries
© Ashley R. Smiley
The waters will still ebb and flow,The moon still pulls the tide.But nothing could be more naturally so,Than the tears from a mothers eyes.It starts the day your child is born when he's first laid upon your breast,In spite of pain from muscles worn,Heartstrings tug at your chest.Tear drops fall from sleepy eyes and trickle down your cheeks,You listen as your child first cries for your breast which he seeks.Time has passed the pain is gone; a bonding has taken place,You look at your little one; the tears still on your face.Just once more you look at him before you lay him down to sleep,You reach out for a kiss on a whim; knowing your heart is his to keep.

The poem made me think of the day that I was in labor and that indeed I did feel the same sensation that the author described in the poem. You forget all the pain that you are having and all you want to do is to be next to her. Nothing matters and that she is the most beautiful newborn baby that there is in the whole wide world. Time flies and now she is not a newborn she now has nine months and later a year, two year, ten years and so on. When that happens, you realized that you have someone that looks up to you for help or simply to hug you and say thank you. You relize that YOU are the person that would help them in any way possible and you will lead them to a good life.
