(A day in the life of a newborn)
by Cheryl Merrick
Pinpricks
and cuddles
Loud noises and
Mommies soft, comforting voice
Limbs jerking and
Daddy holding her snugly
No more constant nourishment
Now she must work hard for her food
Knowing the emptiness and pain of hunger
and the contentment of a full tummy
Being alone for the first time and
Being held close in loving arms
Diana begins her experiences
upon the earth
