1. Can't Wait To Be Your Mommy!
So I am sitting here thinking of the perfect words to say,
to tell you how I feel about the arrival of your birthday.

2. My Perfect Gift
The Gift Of LifeTo celebrate is to embrace an act of wonder and joy,
To show the whole world you have a girl or a boy.
A date that will be written forever in time,
A life, a love, a child of mine.
Tiny fingers and perfect toes,
Rosy pink cheeks and a little button nose.
A true miracle, you are born tonight.
In my arms, I cannot stop staring as I hold you tight.
Held close beside my heart, I gently sway.
You're exactly 20 minutes old; you're here to stay.
My precious gift, my child, my light,
You are everything that's perfect; you are just right.
So hello, my angel; I'd just like to say,
Welcome my darling, and happy birthday! -
3. An Angel From Heaven
An angel from Heaven
who'd been waiting for birth,
is excited to be joining
your family on Earth.
An angel far envied
up there in the blue,
when learned its parents
down here would be you.
Baby angels need care
leaving Father above.
They hope for a family
where there's lots of love.
Where God's light shines brightly
within welcome doors.
A home filled with happiness.
A home just like yours! -
4. My Angel
The Day My Daughter Entered This WorldIn the wee hours of morn,
A miracle took place when my daughter was born
With coal black hair and rosy cheeks and eyes that sparkled blue.
Washed away was all the pain that I had just been through.
As you were placed into my arms, I looked down at your beautiful face.
I drew you closer to my heart where forever you have a place.
It's amazing how in an instant my life took on a new meaning.
So overwhelming were my emotions. I felt as if I was dreaming.
As I looked at my tiny angel that was sent to me from above,
I closed my eyes and thanked the Lord for this baby girl to love!

5. Happy Birthday
Precious Gift Of BabyDid I ever tell you about the day you were born?
When laid in my arms was such an angelic form
With soft black hair, little fingers and toes
The cutest of ears and a kiss on your nose

6. Baby Girl - A Father's Perspective
Poem About A NewbornWho would have thought,
to my surprise,
The day I looked in my daughter's eyes,
That I would find my sunshine,
my star,
my pearl,
All the thoughts in my head,
of this little girl.
You came to me late on the twentieth of November,
That day in my life,
I will always remember.
I did not know who I was as a man,
'till the moment you were placed inside my hands.
And it was at that split moment,
when you opened your eyes,
your true identity was no longer disguised.
As the lights glistened,
in your beautiful eyes,
Inside I slowly started to cry.
I was given an angel, from heavens above,
The final test as a man,
A little girl to love.
I believe by God,
I must have been touched.
I love you, Julianna,
I love you so much.
Your face lights up,
whenever you smile,
A glow that can last an endless mile.
Your brothers,
they love you,
your mom and I the same,
You are the completion to our circle,
the caboose on our train.Latest Shared StoryWhat? No comments? This is amazing, I actually teared up, I have a little girl due any day now and this poem makes me even more excited to be a father.

7. Everything And Nothing
Poem To Unborn ChildThere you are inside me, you're on your way,
I'm more and more excited and scared every day.
Everything is so different and changed,
Life as I've known it - all rearranged.
You stretch and wiggle and move as you grow,
My belly gets bigger, my face stays aglow.
You're a strong little guy - your big muscles show,
You cracked mommy's rib just a few days ago!
Daddy's changing too - he's as proud as can be,
He's so attentive to mommy's every want and need.
Rubbing my belly, he talks to you every night,
He comes to every appointment to make sure you're alright,
The doc said, "It's a girl" but didn't write it in ink,
We assumed he was right and got lots and lots of pink.
We went in for a 3-D, found a penis, "It's a boy!"
Our faces in shock, but our hearts... full of joy.
I've fallen in love with your handsome little face -
I show off your pictures all over the place!
On stamps, on invitations, to everyone I meet,
You look just like your daddy with your chubby little cheeks!
There's so much inside me and everything's new...
New thoughts, new fears, new emotions, and you!
I already love you like I've never felt before,
I wonder how there could possibly be room for more.
Can I teach you respect, show you love, make you strong?
Will you know in an instant that this is where you belong?
You'll teach me patience, show me strength, make me grow -
I'll learn from you every day - you lead and I'll follow.
I have so many worries as we prepare,
Our pockets are empty but we'll make it - I swear.
Can I be a good mother? Will you be okay?
I promise you everything...
...and NOTHING will stand in my way.Latest Shared StoryI needed a little poem to send to my niece who is expecting her first child and these words were so lovely and appropriate, it actually brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful!.... thank you

8. An Ode To Ethan
Poem From A Father On The Birth Of His SonToday it happened,
it's finally done,
the birth of my boy,
the little man, my son.
After a long, tiring wait,
a sweet sound came,
the point when our lives
would never be the same.
It was the sound of the cries,
signaling the start of new life.
I can't describe how proud I am,
of my brave and beautiful wife.
I'll admit that I, too,
cried tears of joy.
When for the very first time,
I at last saw my boy.
As I stood there in awe,
and gazed down at his face,
in an instant the world
became a much better place.
My heart was bursting
with an intense sense of pride,
as I pictured my life
with my son at my side.
I know it's early days,
and we've only just met,
but I promise I'll be
the best father a boy can get.
I'll love you forever,
my son and my wife,
keep you safe and protect you
for all of my life.Latest Shared StoryI have 3 little nephews and I love them to death I would do anything in this world to show how much I care. If anything ever happens to them I would break down and cry just to see one of them...

9. The Beginning
She looks at me with half closed eyes,
As if to pierce my soul.
The sounds she makes are strong and firm
For one just moments old
With skin still soft from life's ordeal
She muscles up a whine
Small fingers reach, yet never touch
But sure they will in time
For life's begun, and all is new
So many things to learn
She's not the first one nor the last
We've each once had our turn.Latest Shared StoryThis poem has touched me . I am 19 years young and am a new mommy as of Dec. 6th 8:25 pm. :) I can't wait for the many memories my daughter is going to give me through out the many years...
