Expecting

by Cheryl Merrick   

    We are counting the weeks -
    There are four.
Each week seems to lengthen
    As our anticipation increases.
As I sit in the sun
    resting,
    It is hard to imagine the day arriving.
We have waited so long.
I strive to imagine how our lives
     Will shortly change.
Our home will be so different.
It will be a new experience for us.
How can we prepare?
With prayers we await the moment,
     hoping this child will find joy
     as he enters the world
       as an Adult.
