Violet Rayne

Written for my daughter, after seeing her on a sonogram for the first time.

I feel like I've just met you
Though I've carried you for months now
And suddenly I love you
Because suddenly you're real

And it breaks my heart to know that
I can't hold you in my arms now
But I'm holding you inside me
And even now can feel you move

I'll hold you high
I'll hold you up
I'll hold you close
I'll hold you tight
And keep you safe
And keep you sound
And keep you in my love forever

Author's Note

I'm at that age where everyone I grew up with his starting to have children or has young children, and I often get the same reaction to this one.
