These weeks were some of the best in my life,
With the feeling of housing a tiny life,
With the joy of meeting a part of me,
With all the excitement of a mother-to-be.
You gave me energy that I never had,
Nothing ever seemed too bad.
I was absolutely in love with life,
It felt like walking in someone else’s shoe.
I sang and my listener moved,
I danced and my partner kicked,
I ate and my buddy did a somersault,
I was never alone, and that gave me a confidence like never before.
My tastes were different as can be,
My reactions were strangers to me.
I could carry myself in anything,
I could make myself not worry about a single thing.
I have often wondered if I was being you,
Is that how you are going to grow up to be?
Whatever it is I can tell you so,
I totally enjoyed the 40 weeks of you.

Very beautiful. Felt like I was reading my thoughts put into words. But then, I can never, ever express myself so beautifully!
Shruthi: Thanks! Look who is talking about not being able to write so beautifully now! Has anybody heard of a better joke lately?
simply superb poem greatly narrated and life is like that during the phase you undergo.
