Im having a baby naming service and need a poem as part of a gift for the guardians, does anyone know of any?
Is it a poem about a baby you want? How about these





Baby's Feet by Algernon Charles Swinburne





A baby's feet, like sea shells pink,


Might tempt, should heaven see meet


An angel's lips to kiss, we think,


A baby's feet.





Like rose-hued sea flowers toward the heat


They stretch and spread and wink


Their ten soft buds that part and meet.





No flower bells that expand and shrink


Gleam half so heavenly sweet,


As shine on life's untrodden brink


A baby's feet.





Ode on the Whole Duty of Parents by Frances Cornford





The spirits of children are remote and wise,


They must go free


Like fishes in the sea


Or starlings in the skies,


Whilst you remain


The shore where casually they come again.


But when there falls the stalking shade of fear,


You must be suddenly near,


You, the unstable, must become a tree


In whose unending heights of flowering green


Hangs every fruit that grows, with silver bells;


Where heart-distracting magic birds are seen


And all the things a fairy-story tells;


Though still you should possess


Roots that go deep in ordinary earth,


And strong consoling bark


To love and to caress.


Last, when at dark


Safe on the pillow lies an up-gazing head


And drinking holy eyes


Are fixed on you,


When, from behind them, questions come to birth


Insistently,


On all the things that you have ever said


Of suns and snakes and parallelograms and flies,


And whether these are true,


Then for a while you'll need to be no more


That sheltering shore


Or legendary tree in safety spread,


No, then you must put on


The robes of Solomon,


Or simply be


Sir Isaac Newton sitting on the bed.
Reply:A baby naming service? I thought you didn't want anything cheesey? Why bother? It's completely meaningless. For God's sake get the kid baptised (Christened) and do it a favour, and while you're about it, do the kid another favour and grow up.
Reply:What's a baby naming service? are letting other people name your baby? guardians of what? the baby? what?
Reply:Meaghan Elizabeth Moeller: a journey for us all





The promise of a new life


beams like the sun rising o'er the East--


Bright, vibrant, illuminating, warm.


The light you are destined to bring to this world


has already brightened all our lives--


as it is sure to spread to every corner of this land.


Yet, even as shadow recedes as noon approaches there


is always somewhere not warmed by the light--


how unfortunate these spaces would be if not lighted


by you--the warmest radiance of all.





And, as it is that we cannot but glimpse the brightness


of our solar friend without fear of blindness,


neither can we gaze into your brilliance to see


what so many tomorrows will bring.


But the promise of discovery makes every moment elapsed


an eternity of possibilities.





And though we cannot know what bright future


destiny holds for you,


we can all imagine, dream, ponder.


Yet, in the end you will choose on what celestial path


you wish to wander.


And, such as the stars arise from the collection


of matter to one venue,


So will your life be made from what you gather


from those around you.


Thus, though the path you choose will be your own,


the journey of your life will never be yours alone.
Reply:Behold my bundled waif


A yawning life ahead


Please set your palms O gently


Upon this newborn head





Gaze upon his future


See to it you are there


How blessed to have you always


Watch him climb the stair
Reply:May I serve my boss


When they ask my help


May I choose as a gift of God


What I expect as a goodwill


When I do a work


that I get a satisfaction


When I get happiness


Then I know some thing


Which I want to earn


That is actual worth


Money is money


There is nothing beyond it!
