LULLABIES AND TOYS


  
  



LULLABIES AND TOYS

A Remembrance

Signs of something happening
morning sickness - moaning - queasy- cravings
A baby is growing inside of me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New feelings in my heart now stirs
tender - maternal - loving  - laughter - joy
The new life inside gives me a feeling of awe

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Baby's awake
I  am walking the floor
Soft breath touches my cheek
 Pulling at my heart strings
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Memories of a golden time
wee one's laughter heard in my kitchen
My little ones crawling across the floor
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Remembered lullabies and toys
love and kisses
dolls to hug
bugs to catch
dreams to dream
I remember
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pink lips - silky hair
My fingertips  caressing cherub cheeks
My precious sweet children
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tonka trucks and Barbie dolls I know by name
Happy days of endless play
My  loves  my precious little children
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
