Baby

As of now, all of my children have four legs and wet noses, but this is for someday when I have kids of my own.

I imagine your little face as our eyes meet for the first time

Though new to each other, it’s as if a lifetime has been shared.

I imagine the love I will feel for you increasing everyday,

The most powerful of its kind

Holding you safe in my arms as you sleep,

I don’t need anything, because I have the world.

I can sense you without even seeing you,

Speaking volumes through your expressions, hands, and posture.

And inside I smile, feeling blessed that I’m the one God gave you too.
