Dedicated to Chukwuemeka & Chijioke Ekwelem,Chimaobi & Emelda Okafor,Kelechi & Tessy Anyanwu and Emeka & Nneoma Nkemakolam
With the joy that came,the wait began
For little feet and chubby hands
For fresh scent and sweet babbling
But all we heard was ‘wait,wait’
And so we waited,day and night
Patiently at first,then soon otherwise
The tension grew,we almost snapped
But all we heard was ‘wait,wait’
And then alas!the signs that came
The sweet pain,the weight gain
Embraced us both and seemed to say
No more will we have to wait,wait
Our Muna is here,the joy is complete
As we cuddle and play with chubby feet
And now we know,t’was not in vain
No more will we have to wait,wait
