Birth

Eyes sledging through

What just came,

Alive, what just came, true.

Life sprouting within,

Love blooming without,

Tears blossomed.

The starry eyed,

The naked cries.

The eternal jiff,

The fingers stiff.

The gates of heaven,

Torn,

Yet again,

Innocence born.

Yet again,

A cosmic debt,

Yet again,

Bliss swept.

Yet again,

One of a kind,

Two more eyes

To a world so blind.
