Oh how sweet, Your tiny little eyes, Looking back at me, I get happy just watching you breathe, Seeing you hold up your fingers, Counting to three, What a joy, A blessing I have been given, A life so precious, You are my life I am living, To hold you close in my arms at night, To kiss your soft little cheek, As I turn out the light, You are my happiness, My smile, my life, Joy you bring, To my heart to sing, Sweet lullabies, To you everynight, Trucks and cars, Scratches and scars, Crayons broken into, little flowers picked, To say mom,"I Love You" Oh how I cheerish you, I love you my sweetie, Time goes by so fast, I want ours to last, Every minute, evey day I savor, Watching you eat your favorite Icecream flavor, Playing with toys in the sand, Holding on to my hand, Kissing boo-boos, reading nighttime stories, Making cookies, Camping out, You are what life is about, Playing games, making crafts, Playing tickle to see you laugh, Oh How I enjoy the little things with you, The little things about you, Every moment measured, Every moment treasured, I am so happy with you, And one day, I will turn around, As tears fall to the ground, My little man, will no longer be two, A handsome man, full of love and truth, I will always look into those tiny eyes, and see the little man of your youth, You will always be mommies little man....

Yes, Jeff they grow-up too fast, my time on passions is limited, because children should come first, they need all the love and attention they can get, never do they stop needing it, nor will I stop giving it! Thank you! |

RM, noone has expressed the joy of being a Mother better than you did in this poem. The love you have for your "little man" just flows from this poem. He's a lucky little guy to have an incredible Mother like you! Loved your poem! No book would be complete without a beautiful poem such as yours on the very first page. ~~wonderful writing~~ A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

Okay, you wrote "crayons broken into, little flowers picked." I read "Crayons broken into little flowers picked." And I thought -- holy ****, now THAT'S a poetic line. So even though you didn't really write that, who cares? Here's a vote. Mike |

Ah Yes... how I do understand those feelings... My daughters are fond of saying that "We'll always be your little babies." How true... how true. I'm sure your son will charish your words in his adulthood. Best of luck and love with your little man. Peace! |

OK, moderators, slap my hand if you must for voting twice for one poem, but one as beautiful as this deserves a second read. Kids are my weakness, what can I say??? A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

A poem as touching as this deserves all the votes that care to be rendered. I can honestly say that my life would not be the same without my angels, ALMOST made me want another one.  Beautiful words of love here. |

Very lovely poem. I too love poems about children..........I also agree about him being your life, my kids are my life. They sometimes say "I'm not a baby anymore mommy" so I had to explain that to me........they will always be. Then they just smile and say "ok, mommy if you say so" When I wrote the one for my kids (Always there), my oldest daughter(11 yrs) cried and said"I didn't know you loved us that much" cute huh? LOL you wrote a wonderful poem....... LITL, Heather With God all things are possible. |
