A blessing from God

A cry is heard,
A baby is born,
All that anxiety is now gone.
I took him in my hands,
As carefully as I possibly could.
It looked so subtle, so delicate.
That very first essence,
That very first cry.
The cry that broke the eternal silence,
The silence that was lasting in the room.
I calmed him down,
And he stopped crying.
The silence engrossed the room, again!
He looked at me and smiled,
A smile that is priceless,
A smile that is inexplicable,
As are the emotions of a new born,
A moment of sadness and the very next,
A moment of happiness.
Those eyes, so small yet so beautiful,
Those eyes which looked,
As if they knew everything yet nothing!
That face, having a charm of its own.
His hands, his feet all so delicate,
The whole creature a blessing,
A blessing from God!
