baby poem

Close your eyes my pet, I will sing for you,

it's a lullaby I never knew,

in this world you know, some things must come and go,

but my world is all in loving you.

It's a simple song, and it's words are true,

and I'll do the best that I can do,

as I write this song, how can the words be wrong,

when they're all about my loving you?

You've got Mommy's eyes, and now I realize

God has blessed my world with loving you,

you've got Daddy's nose, a joke I suppose,

but it's still, what makes up you.

As you close your eyes, here's a prayer or two,

While you sleep I will be here for you.

Things might come and go, but this you'll always know,

Daddy's lullaby is just for you.

Tiny movements like tiny kicks

Tiny baby, a mother’s bliss

Can’t wait to give the tiny you

Huge hugs and lots of kisses too

What tiny dreams you might have now?

I would understand someday, somehow

I dreamed last night, your tiny face

An angel indeed, made from God’s sweet embrace

How else would mommy know?

How much her tiny little angel has grown?

How else would mommy guess?

If  her little angel  have some requests?

I know that somehow you could now hear

Oh, what a thrill you will bring us here!

Now hush my baby, it’s time to rest

Inside my womb, your own calm nest

May God help me to keep you safe

And always keep you strong, I pray

I love you right before I planned you

And I love you more now that I have you
