Short Stories
"My Son"
The words sounded unique,
I repeated them several times,
Sounding them a thousand times,
until I became familiar with
their rhythm and cadence.
I had two daughters,
One was eleven
and the other ten.
I was anxious to know
whether this baby was
a boy or a girl.
At that time, there was
no ultra-sound scan
in our country.
I placed my heart's desire
in God's hands,
as I eagerly waited
for the day to come.
The nurse came out
of the delivery room,
holding a very tiny,
sweet, little baby boy,
wrapped in a blue sheet.
She showed me the baby
for a minute, and away
she goes to the nursery.
I could hear him crying,
maybe to see his mother.
In my heart, I heard him
calling me "Mummy".
I thanked God for
answering my prayers.
God is good to those
who seek him.
