Merlin that is the best tribute to a mom I have ever seem in a poem. I love your sincerety and excitement about coming out..... But you apoligize for any discomfort in your loving way........ Then there you are..... Nothing less than the very highest mark for you young lady....... wonderful work of art......... Jim Troy

Our indebtness to the lady cannot be expressed in words.But your attempt was marvellous, especially calling the womb as our first home.
