It is dedicated to my
daughters.
Returning from a hectic
day at work
When I see your toothless cherubic
smile,
Light up your endearing face,
Light up your endearing face,
When I hear you gurgle
Your tiny tongue darting in and out
I stare at you mesmerised.
Your tiny tongue darting in and out
I stare at you mesmerised.
And then you clutch at my
fingers
While I hold you
close
To kiss your chubby
cheeks
And all of a sudden
And all of a sudden
My tiredness and fatigue
disappear
Like the morning mist
Dispelled by the rising
SUN
And I am rejuvenated.
Such touching lines..

Beautifully expressed, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOnly a parent can understand what it means. To get back from the world - battered and weary. And to watch the darkness lift. With one smile, a gurgle, a naughty twinkle of the eye.
