My child

 

 

Tenderly,

I look upon you.

so innocent,

of this darkened world.

Your cry,

resonates throughout me.

 burdens heavy,

I carry for you.

Harsh world lightened,

by your care free smile.

gently kissing you upon the cheek,

world brightens for a moment.

weights of life,

lift with the sight of you.

For my love so freely given,

I will protect you always my child.

It is amazing how our children and babies can make us smile when the worlds dark shadows creep in. CHildren are the light that chases away the real monsters. I love this whole piece

The soft love expressed here is wonderful. And it's the truth that focusing our care and attention on someone makes the world's problems fade into the background.

Truly describing the feeling that parents may share for their child from the time they were born and so on. Well done, truly excellent.
