The Wonder

With gentle preparation
You are there
Before our eyes
Your tiny hand hides
Your face as you play
Camera shy
Tiny feet and wiggle
Moves that make the
Technician say
He's active
She pauses with her
Magic wand
Silently we watch you
Breathe
We see your mouth
So beautiful
It wears a kiss
From heaven
The wonder of
An ultrasound
Permitted
This early visit
