Ode of my body

Thank you dear body for working so well
thank you for giving me this miraculous story to tell

You who gave me a pregnancy as simple as a dance
and a delivery that was like taken out of a novel of romance

You who give me the strength to stay awake every night
and the amazing ability to get breast feeding right


Dear body that expanded and stretched for several months long
fitting into my skinny jeans after four weeks seems wrong


You extraordinary body that grew a new life 
and added one more title to daughter, sister and wife


Thank you dear body for healing so fast
and thank you for making me a mother at last
