Theme Thursday for June 21, 2012 invites us to write on a theme a ‘New Beginning’. What better than to acknowledge a new beginning for my wonderful nephew Ebby and lovely niece Aini together with their respective spouses and;
Victoria at d'Verse had invited submissions based on a setting of place, character, mood and culture as a theme. I'm submitting a composite of the elements of the theme.
Blessed of divine assurances
New Beginnings of a lineage
A persuasion to extend
A progeny towards a future
Each a first born eagerly awaited
Each a first born eagerly awaited
My nephew Ebby and Mas his
Charming wife, proudly brought
Forth into this world an adorable
‘bundle of joy’ a cute little 'Aqil
A baby boy for all to see
The joyous occasion recorded
Plainly on April 20, 2012
A happy day came in two’s
For on June 06, pretty Aini my niece
And hubby Farid as if to answer the call to celebrate
Proudly gave us an equally cute baby Adam
A twin event to remember
From the two loving couples
The extended family system
Reminiscent of an undertaking and expectations
Of a bright future for their offspring
The mark of a human structure
Of a culture demanding that
Procreation is only natural
Congratulations to Ebby and Mas
And to Farid and Aini, for from now on
Baby feeding and sleepless nights
Would mean the same thing!
congrats to them...these look like beautiful children...i def wish for them a bright future...
