Baby Fever

I saw this couple today - they could not stop staring. their longing was evident. it made me chuckle and it made my heart curious for them.

Their eyes
Find every good thing in the room:
The coo's and cah's of small cherubic,
Mini-me's that bounce on laps
And interrupt thoughts, 
Belly wants
And unknown needs...
Because they speak a different language.
Alien.
Yet apart of us.
Living breath to breath,
Loving breast to breast.
And their eyes find every good thing
In the room
Because their's at home is empty...
For now, at least
Not for long, it seems.
