  Everything has changed
  See! Sleep at a premium
  between sleepless fits
  
  That is a new cry
  We have not heard that cry yet 
  There it is again 
  
  What kind of world is
  the one this child came into—
  time to change our shirts

  How can it be that
  you are born without language
  you interpret us
  
  back to our first face
  and we can only respond
  the same wordless way
  
  the hint of a smile
  that might be more of a smile
  than we ever know
  
  so we smile awhile
  together we smile we smile
