Look into the eyes of your newborn child Cradling his body in your arms So fragile, dependent, you're brimming with love Delicate hands, curled in your palms

Watch him grow, take his first steps The spit of you in toddler years Watch him bloom to adulthood Shedding all his childish fears

Now imagine those joyful years Had never come to be That you had never loved this child His life you'd never see

This child you'd give your life to have You wanted desperately But you were dealt the lonely card Of infertility.
