Stalwart Wonder

Grant Hope #170

The husband
he’s nervous
the wife
she is not
she’s been carrying this child
and knows it will be a good tot
it hasn’t made telegraphed tantrums or coordinated kicks
she knows this child will be all that they wish

While the husband can’t quite shake the nervous excitement away
his wife still finding the strength to be beautiful and fair
puts her comforting hands on his shoulders
looking into his eyes to tell him it is safe to be bolder

He places his hands on her belly
coming to terms with this well-behaved child
his face relaxes with relief
as he stares at his child and his wife with awe-filled wonder
