Birth Of A Child Poem by Marea Johnson

You're all I've ever wanted,
you are everything I've dreamed.
You give new definition
to what loving really means.

You've given me a purpose
to set out and do my best.
You've opened up my heart
and you have put me to the test.

You've given me the chance
to make you something that I'm not
To give you all the things you need-
the things I never got.

I'll give you all the love you need,
the understanding too
'Cuz I have never wanted
anything as much as you.
