Gemini Twins
|
In two tiny cots
You lie - not yet an hour
Old - the vernix still
Damp on your heads and
I watch in fascination
As your small faces
Suddenly colour
And you start to cry, and how
Your immaculate
Miniature hands
Clench tightly; and then just as
Suddenly how
You both slip into
Sleep and in the strange silence
I reflect upon
This moment - high-up
Here above the rooftops of
Norwich, and how on
This June day in the
Last year of the century
Your two lives begin.
