Hints of a distant morning
render the mobile art,
melon, coral, sapphire
against a cobalt heart.
Another day approaches
to filter the night`s domain,
light, like a benediction
blesses the room again.
soft upon the sleepers,
tender across small forms,
competeing in vain with innocence,
precious in slumber`s arms.
Jewels on the dew-pink window
and gems in my misty eye,
oh capture somehow this miracle,
this moment of charm
sublime.

Oh, how beautifully you expressed your love here, dear Amaryllis. I know of this emotion.

Precious and excellent work!

Love,

Thank you, Marge!  This is an older poem I wrote some time ago, when my boys were littler.  The moment was so achingly beautiful that it is forever etched in my soul.. the poem can hardly do it justice!  
Love~Amaryllis

This is absolutely precious, miss. Is there anything more beautiful than the face of a sleeping child? I think not....
