Wonders Of Child Birth... Poem by Melissa Coventry

Wonders Of Child Birth...



Blood and toiling sweat flying,
Running deep, frustration rising,
Body aching, headache banging,
Keep, keep pushing…

Gripping, gripping,
Grasping, screaming, yelling,
Yelling…
Stopped. Silence.

The baby is a boy,
Sigh. He is alive,
Gasp. The mother,
Is not… why?

How does one explain the inexplicable?
