Sweetness.
You're big brown eyes,
So shiny,
You're soft warm body,
So tiny,
You're skin softer than anything,
You were hiding with an angel wing,
You're lips curved into a small smile,
Haven't seen one this genuine in a while.
You're so young,
But seems so bold,
You're so smart,
Even though You're only six months old.
Youre new ,
You're free,
And I can see,
That you have great possibilities,
No knowledge of the world at all,
Not even a guess,
It doesn't matter to you,
Couldn't care less.
She walked over to me,
And placed you In my arms,
Can you trust me?
I never before held a baby,
But once she did,
And you looked into my eyes,
My heart completely melted,
And then I realized,
How precious it is,
To hold the future in my hands,
Will you later be a hero?
Or travel to many lands?
You could be the best,
You might be the greatest,
But now you're just a baby,
Covered in sweetness.

Thanks 🙂
Thanks TSG ~ Wonderful experience ~ beautiful poem ! I love Babies too and love your description ~ "Covered in sweetness " Also I love the way you foresaw the future in that tiny "bundle of joy" in your arms. Just imagine what it must be lik to be a Mum or (for me) a Dad ! The potential in each neonate is infinite another MOZART or another MARIE CURIE ~ who knows. This is why abortion or the killing of a Child (at any age) is so so horrendous ! Thanks for sharing and caring ~ BRIAN
Thank you! I always imagine what its like to be a mom, but of corse I probably won't be until another ten years so. Lol
