Take a load off and read this beautiful poem about newborns.

"Children are like angels come down from heaven".

Here is a poem that explains what I mean

      Where did you come From?

Where did you come from baby dear?

Out of everywhere into here.

Where did you get your eyes so blue?

Out of the sky as I came through

.   What makes the light in them sparkle and spin?

Some of the starry spikes left in.

Where did you  get that little tear?

I  found it waiting when I got here.

  What makes your forehead so smooth and high?

A soft hand stroked it as I went by.

What makes your cheek like a warm white rose?

I saw something better than anyone knows.

Whence that three-corner'd smile of bliss?

Three angels gave me at once a kiss.

Where did you get this pearly ear?

God spoke, and it came out to hear.

Where did you get those arms and hands?

Love made itself into hooks and bands.

    Feet, whence did you come, you darling things?

From the same box as the cherub's wings.

How did they all come just to be you?

God thought of me, and so I grew.

But how did you come to us, you dear?

God thought  of you, and so I am here.
