Oh how sweet, < !signature-->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.... "Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove. O,no! it is an ever-fixed mark....William Shakespeare [This message has been edited by A Romantic Heart (edited 04-20-2000).] |

RomanticHeart~ Awwwwww ! From mommie's heart. Those memories will stay with you long after he's outgrown the stages that engraved them on your heart. This is really a loving render. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Kissed a few boo-boos in may day as well. There is nothing more meaningful than that little life that depends on you for all the necessary things, especially LOVE. Its a beautiful world indeed Nice poem Mom. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

Thanks one and all for the most gracious comments... I was just putting my little one to sleep and I was crying, thinking how much I love him so, and the happiness he has brought into my life. So I wrote the poem about him...want to keep him at that tender age of innocence forever...I love love to watch him sleep and steal a few kisses!
