October 17, 1993
A baby boy laid still.
Tears were shed, filled with dread,
He didn’t move or make a sound.
After minutes that seemed like forever,
His cries were heard loudly, clearly,
Like a siren piecing the still of night.
The world wait was over,
Ten pounds of anxiety born.

Seriously? It just mean to write that without leaving some kind of explanation. (:
