Mine to keep,

I hold you softly against your gentleness
Breathing the smell; of your fresh new life
I have waited for you for such a long time
I will protect you from all strife,

Now that you're here my sweet baby
My heart no longer aches
I will nurture you my darling
No matter how long it takes,

Your face is so soft and innocent
And your nature so sweet
Your small delicate fingers
Your dainty little feet,

At last my darling you are with me
You are mine for ever to keep
Hush my darling little baby
Just rest your head and sleep,

Annie

Beautiful tribute to that brand new person.........Don't they smell so darn nice when they're a little baby.

Love the description Annie.....Anyone that's ever been a parent, man or woman, know where you're coming from with this.....

Lovely lullaby!
