Chickpea's Great and Tiny Adventure
A Bookwomb Tale of Growth and Wonder

There’s a place full of dreams and tucked out of sight,
where tiny seeds sit alone yearning for light.
In a womb where life starts, a seed wants to grow,
and through capers and wonders, Chickpea will glow.

Still a seed, it did not know that two hearts met.
Those hearts made love bloom, and a new path was set.
From a magic bond to a small seed, they gave
the chance for young life and a moment to save.

The first month of life began easy-peasy,
then it felt unsure and almost uneasy.
“I am so very young and so small,” it thought,
“but I want more adventures, more than I ought!”

Month two flickered with sparkling, glowing soft light.
Sprouting four buds, Chickpea was now growing right!
“I am no longer a seed,” it said and gleamed.
A journey of growth would unfold, so it seemed.

The third month produced hope – there was a surprise.
Its tiny fingers formed, and they grew in size!
“I have hands and feet now,” Chickpea looked and cheered.
Feeling new wonder, teardrops formed and appeared.
