The Positive Pregnancy Test
I was Positive
It would be negative
I felt not much
Different.
The world was turning
Like normal.
The house was quiet-
Still waking up
From a deep sleep.
But there it was-
Positive.
Positive that there
Would be
A change
To my heart
To our lives
To our future.
A very positive
Positive.
Negative
The changes started
And I didn't know
What to do.
There was
No test to take.
No-
You are losing this baby
Or...
This baby will be just fine.
You over did it.
You need to rest.
Or...
This baby wasn't quite ready yet.
To come to this world
Of joy and pain.
Of where "You're having a baby!"
Turned into
"You're having a miscarriage."
When it really should be-
"You're having a lesson."
An earthly, spiritual lesson.
