Let’s not walk softly as though on hallowed ground.

Let’s walk boldly and talk of love.

Love, so young, careless, unbound.

Love, so foolish. Yet love that brought forth life.

A tiny seed began to grow secretly, quietly in a dark and lonely room.

This seed became… begun in love, reckless, foolish, and too soon.

A spark of passion warm and light, a seed burst forth,

And out of love came you.

---

How easy it is for children at play to make another life.

It took no thought, just passion.

Then a spark, barely visible,

Became a fire when you came so sudden.

It was you dear child, a heart, joined to mine… forever.
