a man's son
a man sits
 wondering
 waiting
 the room filled with screams
 coughs
 moans
 the desperate
 the man holds his head in his hands
 he breathes steadily 
 calmly
 trying to keep himself in control
 the doctors pass and look at him 
 he hears his name called
 he stands up 
 and goes in
 there his wife lays and smiles
 her hair wet
 she's tired
 in her arms a blue blanket
 and the sound of a small cry
 the man tears up
 kisses her cheek
 then looks upon his son
 the first time they meet.
