Andrea

 

By Sean Leon Reser 

 

 

 

When my daughter 

 

Andrea was born 

 

I was a father for the first time 

 

I was the first to hold her  

 

When the nurse brought her out.

 

When she was born 

 

She lets out a shout 

 

I knew she was happy 

 

Not wanting to go back. 

 

I watched through a window

 

As they wrapped her up. 

 

Standing at the door

 

The nurse brought her out

 

And she said “Here you go”

 

Bringing her close 

 

She opened her eyes 

 

Staring into mine 

 

She smiled 

 

Then I knew 

 

She loved her daddy
