you will be

patiently we wait
as you develop to perfection
we are expectant
for the day of your
majestic arrival

we’ve never met
and yet we already converse
you move and we watch
you stretch and we touch
words without sound

a flawless impression
of your creator –
every detail unique
and ultimately
one-of-a-kind

we are humbled
silenced by awe
and thankful for the gift –
if for only a moment
we can claim as our own

you are little eu
you are little me
you are little us
soon,
you will be
