You gazed into my eyes tonight
I spied a glimmer of delight

A smile filled with heaven's grace
So swiftly spread across your face

Alone we were, just you and me
Enraptured in sweet reverie

These times of ponder are the best
By far more special than the rest

I gazed into your eyes tonight
You filled my soul with sheer delight

You touched my hand and then my face
A moment safe from time's erase

Those eyes that will a future see
Long after I shall cease to be

Tonight have told me I am blessed
They'll not forsake me when I rest

They'll carry me long past this night
Remembering long gone delight

Recalling well this time and place
When we were touched by heaven's grace

And through your eyes I too will see
Those future days still yet to be

Long after I am laid to rest
They'll sing for me that we were blessed.

Denise~
This was such an amazing and uplifting poem. This is the first piece I've read of yours. I really liked it. Time sure flies by so fast...so its important to spend as much time as we can with little ones. Your talent is shining through!
