Little Man

Little Man in the morning light on my chest

Smiling, reaching, stretching your neck up and down from side to side

Experimenting with this new trick of yours, how strong you've become

Cooing at the shadows on the walls, mouth in an O at the wonder around you

Sweet, warm, baby breath upon my face

Tiny fingers grasping onto my big ones

I nestle my face into your neck and drink you up

This moment of ours in the early morning

I would give up anything for you

Just to enjoy every minute with you

These precious days are going by all too fast

Who knew a love like this was possible...

If you want to stay on my chest all day as morning lights to afternoon and fades to evening...

We could.
