This poem was written for Colin and Kris Bulla for their new baby boy Ian. I hope the rest of the SBers will enjoy this poem. I love you Colin, Kris, X-man, and Ian. We are surely family now.
[c]The New Conch Diver[/c]
[c]The bright light arises from the east,[/c]
[c]All get ready for something to eat,[/c]
[c]We all think it is another day,[/c]
[c]But we all are not the one who will pay,[/c]
[c]She tells us it might happen,[/c]
[c]And we all look at her and grin,[/c]
[c]She tells us to get ready to pack everything,[/c]
[c]With every contraction she begins to sing,[/c]
[c]The song the other women already know,[/c]
[c]Load the car, the kids, and let's go,[/c]
[c]We are all running now,[/c]
[c]She must get there some how,[/c]
[c]Once we're there the symphony begins,[/c]
[c]Her songs arise that feeling in all women and men,[/c]
[c]Some sit and watch while others pace the floor,[/c]
[c]This baby is coming for sure,[/c]
[c]The father sits by her side and waits,[/c]
[c]Above their head I swear I see Saints,[/c]
[c]Another diver is joining our ranks,[/c]
[c]God! We're going to have to buy more tanks,[/c]
[c]With every whimper it grows near,[/c]
[c]Everyone's mission is now very clear,[/c]
[c]The tension is growing to beyond control,[/c]
[c]Together we all grow as one soul,[/c]
[c]As the cry of the little one fills the air we all sigh,[/c]
[c]We all look at each other as salty water fills the eye,[/c]
[c]He is here we knew this moment would survive,[/c]
[c]I can't wait until he is older so we all can dive,[/c]
[c]We all love him like the ocean does the shore,[/c]
[c]Amongst us now is another Conch Diver like non before.[/c]
I hope this poem touches you as it has done me.......
