POEM - Patiently waiting

Patiently waiting

Baby I love you though God has not yet given you to me,
I have spent my whole life learning patience and that is now what I am trying to be
I love you though we have not met, and though you are not yet real;
Some how you are in every thought, and love is all I feel
You're a dream I didn't know I had, a prayer I didn't know I would pray;
A song that I would sing to you, if only you would stay.
We want you in our life to share a love that is so strong;
And we will continue to wait for you-it does not matter how long
We believe God's perfect plan so you will come when the time is right;
And though you are not real yet, you are already Mommy's delight
I want to hold you in my arms and teach you to be great;
I want you to be our legacy, our destiny, our fate
Your Daddy and I love you and we can't wait for the day;
When we kiss you gently and you will not go away.
We have a wonderful marriage, maybe this hardship is our test;
But holding hands together, we continue to pray for the best.
That you will grace our lives with greatness and make us family;
So the love that is too much for two can soon be shared by three.
