This is to the womb
That made me so
To the entity
That gave me, life
My first Day,
An appreciation
To the Big Pushers
And the push again
Come on, one LAST PUSHHH!!
To all the 9 months
Afters......
The addiction crave
To the weird combination
Of food crave, emotions yoyo
Stretch marks, don't you dare
The relief and joy, the first hold
From you I took my first step
Kiss on my forehead,
Gives me assurance
And am still walking.....
You are Appreciated!
Like the feel of the
First sunny day after winter
Much loved and cherrished
Thank you..
Thank you
Thank You Very Much
This is to the womb that made me so
