Baby Steps..

This was written a little over four months after Mr. Independent was born. Babies are such great inspiration!

Eternity is held within your gaze
Bright eyes turned above
Heaven's wonder shown in many ways.
My child, my gift, my love.

I compose this for my firstborn as I watched him drift off to dreamland one day...

Sitting here watching him sleep
Still small and dependent on me
Deep brown eyes, closing slowly
I wonder what he sees in me?
Tiny fingers clutching dreams
Little ears listening to my heartbeat.
