babies are forever

Poetry Jam

Children

There is nothing more lovable then a newborn baby.
Skin so soft and fingers so small,
Nothing like nursing a baby daughter,
So dependent and so much a miracle.
No words can describe the love, 
For it is a bond forever,
Between a mother and a daughter.
The love so fills your heart that there is room
For nothing else,
Just the baby.
Then,
There is a second daughter, 
And you wonder?
Is there room for more love in your heart?
Skin so soft and fingers so small.
Nothing like nursing a baby daughter, 
So dependent and so much a miracle.
No words can describe your love,
And you know.
Yes, There is no question in your heart,
 There is enough room to love two daughters.

Time passes, They grow, You grow, 
Love grows deep for your babies.
Then, 
Some place, somewhere, in the passage of time,
There are now three adults
 And love is tested.

And you might ask again,
But…
There is no question at all.
There is LOVE 
There is love now and forever,
For your children.
The space in your heart is there from birth through forever!
No Questions Asked. 
No reservations on any of their life decisions. 
No way to erase the bond 
Of the baby that was born
But Also,
 No Way To Not Worry
Because 
There is such a deep Love.
Children
Are always
Your Children.
Grandmothers Still Love Their Children.
LOVE
Never ends,
When it is your child that you love. 
Love
Becomes
A
Prayer
