New Ritual

Calling it a day, I place the cordless phone close to me, beside my bed.
Night after night this new ritual is followed. I sleep with watchfulness,
waiting for your call, your voice announcing the newness of a life cycle.
Anticipating joy, excitement, new beginnings; witnessing life anew
through tiny hands and feet, tiny lips that long to seek a nuturing mother.
Life's gift no matter how many times repeated still amazes.
So it is through this past week my new ritual of waiting, longing, praying.
