The Second Eye
by
Michael Dylan Welch
our wrinkled newborn
sleeping in my arms—
how lucky is the sun
to have dawned
this very day
home from the hospital—
what are the chances
for the baby’s first drive
that all the lights
would be green?
grandparents arriving
from another country—
in the name-the-baby book
a four-leaf clover
marks his page
another feeding—
again we count
his fingers and toes
and they’re all
still there
the baby asleep
beside the Daruma doll—
tomorrow
we’ll paint
its second eye
