I Gave the World a You

I Gave the World a You draws beauty from the ordinary that surrounds us- shadows stretching, bugs chirping, slow ocean waves. The speaker is painting the world perfectly as if he or she were describing Earth to someone who has never been. It is seemingly complete and in need of nothing more, until a baby comes, and he/she realizes as exciting and colorful as the Earth has always been, it was missing this child.

Every child deserves to hear ordinary parts of life they experience daily spoken into the most magical descriptions they have ever heard, because we truly become too used to life's beauties. In the same vein, every child deserves to feel even greater than them all.
