The first visit with Maeve - Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Drogheda
A little welcome poem:
Maeve – Cáilin na Gruaige Dubh
Born July 4, 2005
Holding you in my arms
the day after you were born
You were still in the darkness of birth sleep, and yet
With the rise and fall of your breathing,
I felt
the beauty and strength and
warmth of your spirit soul.
As you nestled asleep in my arms
my heart listened
to the gentle soft beat from within you.
Your dark haired head full of strength has
led you through birth to life.
The first of many journeys you will take on your own
but never alone
Tired out
you lie sleeping in your tiny bed
We silently look on you with hearts filled with joy
on your sweetly formed mouth and face
celebrating the mystery of life begun afresh again in you
Mamó
