Our Princess Poem by Jibrael Jos

Our Princess



Well there may be many thrills in life,
but we doubt whether any can better this.
Out of 24 hours this lady sleeps for 14 hrs
and make sure we don't sleep more than four
feeds for six hours
and does not care an iota about our woes
cries almost an hour a day
and keeps us on toes
expects us to toil for her
as she soils her clothes.

But
Her one yawn
Her one smile
Her one stretch
Takes us to cloud nine
And Fills us with pride

Gazing at her is peace
Holding her is success
She is what makes us feel complete.

We never understood why our parents love is so unconditional
But we have an idea now why.
So much emotions in the last 10 days
Labour, Birth, Jaundice.. smiles and tears.

This is our princess … as you may have yours.
This is our bundle of joy … which knows no bounds
This is our baby - Our life from now on.
