Love, And My Husband

I whisper to my children sleeping dreamily
as they play with angels,
telling them how I love them
and that without them
I wouldn't want to go on.
I sing soft lullabies
sweet songs that God has given me,
and touch their precious faces,
pushing back a lock of hair.
I kneel between their beds
and pray in silent, wondrous joy;
I kiss each cheek,
push back that stubborn lock of hair,
and with throbbing heart go to bed;
Love and my husband are waiting there.

w. james beard, jr.

Your muse is flowing, James...
