I have discovered a wonderful way-
A blessed way to start my day
Looking at the cherubic countenance
Of my child, replete with innocence
Lost in the blissful folds of sleep
Floating in a dreamless slumber deep
The sight of him floods every crevice
Of my heart with profound love, as I kiss
Him on the forehead and whisper a prayer
For God to shield him with an impenetrable layer
Of courage and faith, to enable him forever
To live life to the fullest, with zest and fervor
**
Then he opens his eyes with a smile
Stretching my happiness an extra mile
And into action we get galvanized
(It still takes effort to get organized)
As I pen this down, I thank the heavens
That in my life, I have an angel’s presence.
So very beautiful.

I share your sentiments and know how you feel. I felt it with my daughters and now with my granddaughter. It’s a swelling of the heart that feels like the love it holds is going to explode. We are blessed to feel this way. Thank you for verbalising it. 😍

My kids are grown, so now I do this with my cats. Still a lovely way to start the day.
