Cooing parent,
Blooming with life,
Stroking rounded belly
Gentle hands over curves
That so slowly expanded,
In the nine months of
Miracle developing.
A perfect little one,
From within, come
Impatient little kicks.
Eager, frail, tiny life curled,
Waiting for the outside world.
Eager now for those bigger places,  
Wanting the bigger spaces outside.
Listening, yet not fully understanding,
Soft whisperings and the soothing voices,
To calm the tiny and impatient little kicker
Cooing and whispered lullabies, drifting
Along with  steady mothers heartbeat,
Its not time yet. Patience darling one,
I’ll  show you the world you want,
In but a few short days more.  
Hush my little infant child,
Sleep soundly,
‘Til you  are
Born.

I think it turned out really well, but maybe think about the placement of punctuation. if you want I can help you with it, but other than that I really like it. It might be DD worthy with a tiny lil work :hug:

:giggle: i don't think its that good but sure a little help would be brilliant - i always suck at the punctuation - likewise i do edit the punctuation and such - it will need to be done in a way where the shape the text is in is still maintained likewise i mighty well consider highlighting a few words at random within the center in a bolder text to form a secondary shape if you will but subtle- i just figured i woudl get this up here before i edited it overly much ans lost a lot of sight of the original

Wow, the shape....well, it is very good, but maybe...a wee bit shorter sentences?
:iconrockgem:
thankyou - punctuation is not my strong point - i'm working on another edit of this where it is far more punctuated but in a way where the shape is kept without too much distortion on it
