A LullabyeA Poem by Amanda CaryLove for my son. :)A Lullabye Tonight, Love While you are sound asleep Safe and away so far In that place where your breath is steady In that place where your eyelashes dance In their own iridescence with The lights you're chasing And the threads you spin I will watch you As I did the night before My baby And as I did the night before that And I will wonder How in this world In this whole wide world You have chosen to meet me here All wrapped up In your tender skin Complete You brought Your smiles And toes And fingers To grow And you've been as patient as a little Soul can be While he sleeps As patient as you can So that I may stand here Wading in the soft amber That you glow so sweet So that I may feel the smell of you Tickle my pores So warm Its ribbons lift me into you And upon your sighs as you dream As if it knows That I would have always lingered here Just to be certain That you are real © 2016 Amanda Cary |
