Laying I wait
Curled. A fetus
Skin so white, so thin
Waiting. Waiting.
August, I was born
People gathered
So many people
Eyes upon me
So many eyes.
They came to see me!
Everyone stands.
I am lifed. Up. Up.
Into my parent’s arms.
Oh, so gently taken
Embraced with pride
My journey begins
To see the unforgettable
To learn without limits
Cradled in my parent’s lap
I wait.
Gentle caresses I feel
Catching sweet smiles and glimpses
It’s time!
Lifted, my arms unfold. Extend.
Embracing. Wrapping.
Close to my parent.
Piggyback ride, I go.
Into my journey
The next 4 years.
I am christened
“White Lab Coat”
