Bubbles

He throws silly paper balls at her
Then chortling with joy, falls over her
She's tired but just can't get angry with him
Loving the laughter, and the eyes twinkling

His laughter surrounding her like water bubbles
Soft and delicate, making her forget her troubles
A low sweet laugh, that fills her heart to bursting
Making her feel that the world is the colour of spring

Used to the grime of life, this happiness scares her
But her son wipes away the grime with a tiny ball of paper
Ouch! she tries to dodge another paper ball in vain
And the bubbles surrounded her again...

She loves that loving feeling!

She loves that loving feeling

Washing over her, like a warm wave
drowning her heart in its wake
lasting but a few moments in time
or moments that last a lifetime?

Oh those moments of sunshine and bliss
when he offers his cheek for a sweet kiss
or wraps his arms around her, crying mummy
or falls asleep on her shoulder, tenderly

'tis love that she is feeling, and
oh! she loves that loving feeling!

Happy New Year Son!

A red balloon flies across a blue sky
All out of breath chasing a butterfly
Dirt of the playground on his jacket
He falls and gets up to play again

Cold wind blowing in his face, lifting his hair
The hot sun taking bite out of the cold air
Sliding off the slides and see saws
Making new friends and shaking hands

Happily playing with his new friends
As his smiling mother watches, from the bench
A good day, this, the last day of the year
A new day and new year await you tomorrow!

New year, new days, new possibilities…
New bedtime stories, new discoveries…
A new world awaits you everyday!
A happy new year to you my son!

~Love
Mom

A blue playground

White clouds run around in a land of cornflower blue
Little bundles of fluff playing tag in groups of two
The young sun smiles dotingly on their childish pranks
And the warm wind herds them this way then that

Looking up from his nest under the orange trees' shade
The little boy dreams of walking on the blue landscape
Jumping into the white fluffy clouds, laughing
Trying to push against the gentle hands of the wind

Slowly the boy pulls himself out of his reverie
A bee is buzzing nearby, on the shrub of strawberries
He gets down from the low slung tree branch and runs
Towards his mother's voice, announcing lunch

My morning sunshine!

Today morning was just like any other day
Rushing around readying for my work day
And then my lil sunshine awoke from his slumber
Yawning like a furry cat … the lil charmer

He lifted his face and looked into my eyes
Beautiful dark eyes, a cute nose and a lovely smile…
A face full of pure happiness at just being
Happy that he awoke with his mommy near him

And time stopped for a while….
I held my breath… my heart swelled
Trying hard to memorize this look that he holds
And hoping I will remember it after I grow old

My lil angel

He runs towards me in his wibbly wobbly walk
I sweep him into my arms and let him talk
He wraps his soft lil arms tightly around me
And presses his cheek to mine, ah 'tis bliss

Tired after an evening in the park
Nicely scrubbed and clean after his bath
Sigh! The smell of his soft baby perfume
Soft hair smelling of baby shampoo

Ready to fall asleep is my lil wonder
He lays his head on my shoulder
Soon his eyes droop gently
A smile plays on his lips quietly

Sleep tight my lil angel
Mommy will watch over her lil angel
Mommy will never let anyone hurt you
Sleep my lil angel, your mommy loves you

Love whispered to me

Wind whispering through the leaves
Sunshine dappling beautiful weaves
Jasmine scented winds playing with my hair
Is it?....Yes it is love in the air

The lil one trots down the path

Laughing at even a blade of grass

And life is beautiful again...

I love my life again....
