NAMES

A conversation, on a life changing night

"You love her, dont you?"

"Yes I love her, no point in any denial is there"

" Will you care for her, like you said you would care for me?"

"Yes I will care for her"

"What is it about her you love so much?"

"Everything about her is just so perfect, her blue eyes that sparkle lips that I long to kiss "

"Do you love her more than you love me?"

"Now how could that be, It's just different with her, i'm sure you can see"

"I feel a little jealous, I know that she is so very beautiful, I fear she will take you away from me"

"You're being silly, and feeling insecure, you know that I love the both of you, it's plain for all to see"

"You are right of course, how silly of me, for she is our third child how happy we should be"

"Yes my darling, and we both love her so, now think of a name, not just number three."

[Poetic Beauty]

I like the last line of this poem. this poem has deep emotions in it that most people hold back and don't express. Children bring love, laughter and kindness but the emotions that most don't speak about are the anxiety, wondering and being scared. I like how this poem is a conversation. It is creative and well thought out. You have clearly expressed so many emotions going on in this piece.

LOL...at first I thought this was some kind of twisted three-some. Usually, it is the other way around. I read it is sometimes hard for a man to share his wife with a newborn that needs so much of her time and attention. This was a pleasure to read, and now I know something about you, Daddy. :)

XD very nicely done, to tease and twist the reader like that.

oh number 3 is a lovely name! LOL.. very clever, what wondering the whole time who are these representing..nicely done, there is sometimes a little envy over the relationship between a father and daughter..mine are so close - so can understand this concept..

[Ladysue]

I agree this is very clever done....the green eye monster...this was unique and well done...

[Marie Harrison]

Oh...this is so clever. I thought this was a different sort of poem at first, instead of another lady it's another baby. Cute! Same monster anyway, jealousy.

[Robin]

jealousy is such an ugly emotion , let the name calling begin ..
