Her lips were cherry red.
His hands were shaking.
The observant nurse said,
"Is this your first baby?"
"She's actually our eleventh".
They were as excited as first-time parents,
enough so that he [the professional photographer]
forgot how to use his camera.
The moment had finally come.
She patiently labored.
Their shiny infant was born.
Though only hours old,
she smiled her first smile in that hospital room.
