Umbilical stopped circulation

Until removed from around the red

Told to have been an anticipation

Yet once or twice was close to dead


Birthed the day before winter came

Christmas child born in illness

Identity chosen within a name

Picked by "unique-minded" parents


Legs didn't bend for crawling

I skipped to army nudges

Was quick to begin toe-walking

Developed in quick progresses


My first year I don't remember

My world view evolved later...
