A Mother's Visions

(For My Baby Tj)

I sat here upon the couch tonight
And I watched him as he played
There he was, my little boy
In his happy little ways

He looked at me and smiled then...
Showing me the place two teeth used to be
And then he asked me in a soft voice
Mommy won't you come and play with me

My eyes couldn't stop the tears that fell
And he asked me if I was Okay
And I said yes I am my little one
I just love you more every day

He laughed and put his arm around me
He said crying is not what you need to do
Mommy your face should be smiling right now....
Because Mommy I love you too

This is one of the greatest mysteries of life....
The unconditional love of a child
And they show it in so many ways
Be it a hug or a toothless smile
