This delicate spring-like poem by poet Kevin Crossley-Holland is an affectionate salutation to a newborn babe. The poet tells that the parents couldn't decide on a name for their baby and that instead of imposing an inappropriate name on her they will welcome her into the garden of the world and wait for her to 'declare' herself. After a hushed introduction of whispered welcomes the voices burst into a dance-like song in celebration of the new arrival's homecoming.
